This kitchen had been on the list for years! Cracked countertops, cabinets that were peeling, and a layout that just didn't have enough room to breathe. The rest of the house had been beautifully updated. The kitchen was still waiting its turn.

When the homeowners finally brought us in, our goal was clear: make a small space genuinely work without sacrificing an ounce of mid-century style.

We kept the existing bar and built-in pantry and rebuilt everything else from scratch. Custom maple cabinetry was blended with the home's existing high-gloss white to connect the kitchen to the rest of the house. Charcoal quartz countertops were carried up the backsplash and wrapped into the window well, creating a seamless focal point around the new cooktop. Pull-out storage for spices, oils, utensils, and trays flank the cooktop on both sides. An appliance garage keeps the counter clear. A blind corner sink base houses the RO system. A workstation sink provides superior functionality. Even a flush hidden outlet was built right into the quartz — because in a small kitchen, every surface matters.

The result is a kitchen that finally keeps up with the life being lived in it.
If your kitchen is still on the list, we'd love to help you check it off.

Your home gym should work as hard as you do. 🖤

We install a lot of rubber flooring in home gyms, and yes - every detail is intentional. Our designers take time to learn what equipment you're using so they can recommend the right product for how you actually train.
