This is kitchen is one of my favorite projects ever! I enjoyed working on this home so much and especially this room. I thought I had shown before pictures but when I was last in Louisiana and we were discussing, I realized I had not..so here it goes!
and
and now with new cabinets, refinished floors and appliances!
THE AFTER!
We removed the peninsula where the stove was before and opened up the breakfast room to the kitchen proper and added a thin island and penandts…this moved the stove to an outside wall which the homeowners were fine with but overall the general footprint is very similar..we did add more butler pantry area and close one door but laundry room door stayed the same..and of course we had to add some open shelving and lighting! oh the lightning! I love how the lighting is different but all flows.
We also moved the dishwasher and lost the double ovens but they gained an amazing Viking range with shelf!
Notice the tongue and groove wood ceiling and the beadboard backsplash..they add so much..there is no subway tile in this kitchen..we used glossy white paint on beadboard and that has been fine ..and this is a cook’s kitchen..not just for show. The carerra and farm sink are also holding up well. The homeowner says she is careful with her winebottles and they use a big butcher block a lot but the carerra and wood top on island are holding up great!
I love to visit this faucet!
