The main priority for this project was to create an open layout on the main level of the home, creating a space for entertaining. The previous design featured separate living areas, including a distinct living room, kitchen, and formal dining room. To optimize the kitchen space, it was relocated to what used to be the formal dining room. This change resulted in a larger, U-shaped kitchen with ample countertop and storage space.

The rich quartersawn oak cabinets were customized to include features for pantry, broom, and sheet pan storage. The clean, crisp quartz countertops offer a maintenance-free surface for meal preparation while allowing the custom Clay Squared backsplash to become the focal point of the kitchen. The porcelain tile floors provide a soft backdrop, and together with the other materials, they create a modern yet slightly rustic atmosphere, with playful elements throughout.

New windows and sliding doors were installed, allowing plenty of natural light to flood the newly opened main floor. This transformation resulted in and inviting space well-suited for entertaining.
