The APlus team was called upon by the owners of a Coto de Caza home to perform a full-scale kitchen renovation.
Before
Originally, the kitchen had standard cabinets that didn’t make the best use of the space available. This lead to problems with awkward storage arrangements. The owners requested that we build custom cabinets that not only enhanced the beauty of the kitchen, but also maximized the storage options available and made working in the kitchen far more practical.
Restructuring
Beige stone tiles arranged in a diamond pattern create a subtle, textured foundation. Moreover, the neutral hue enhances the kitchen’s warm aesthetic. Upon that base we began to build the new custom cabinets in a U-shaped layout that hugged the walls of the kitchen. We constructed the cabinets out of maple wood in a traditional style, with Flat Beaded Edge crown moulding. The sleek Royce stainless steel handles allow for a blend of classic and modern design that results in a transitional look for the entire kitchen. We outfitted the cabinets with many stacks of drawers to provide various sorting and storage options. Corner cabinets have fold-out doors and built-in lazy susans, which come standard every APlus kitchen renovation.
Light rails brighten the undersides of the cabinets for better visibility. Moreover, they enhance the pristine white stone countertops with added illumination. This lighting also draws attention to the narrow earthy gray tiles applied to the walls as a stylish backsplash. On the ceiling, the recessed portion is trimmed with its own moulding to give a tidy, sophisticated appearance. The recessed lighting here incorporates even more modernity. In the middle of the kitchen we built a slender island to provide more workspace. It has multiple drawers and shelves.
After all of the materials and cabinets were in place, the remodeled kitchen boasted a new look that was fresh, bright, and beautifully simple.
Appliances
In keeping with the transitional design of the the kitchen, the owners opted for primarily stainless steel appliances. Beneath the bay window there’s a double-bowl undermount sink, next to an undercounter dishwasher. A double oven and microwave sit neatly within the surrounding cabinetry. Also, this placement creates a streamlined and efficient cooking zone. The refrigerator features panels that match the surrounding cabinetry for a seamless look. Also the 6-burner island rangetop showcases a sleek, glossy black finish.
