Recently, we completed a full renovation of a kitchen in Long Island. The owners had purchased a property and hired an architect to remodel the entire home. They decided to also consult a kitchen designer to help create the look they wanted within their kitchen. So when CCW’s designer, Amy, visited the home for a measurement, she agreed that the 1960s style kitchen needed an update. The picture below is proof that the space still had its original laminate cabinetry and tile floor.
The family hoped for a kitchen that would be timeless, yet have a rustic appeal. To create the desired look, Brookhaven maple and oak cabinetry were mixed in throughout the space. In addition, the cabinetry above the countertop would have glass doors for an antique look. Amy also mixed the countertop within the kitchen. The island top is carrara marble to accent the white cabinetry, and Caesarstone’s concrete was added along the perimeter to accent the grey island. The original space made the kitchen feel tight and confined, so a wall was knocked down to create an open floor plan for the neighboring living room. Lastly, the family wanted a space to eat so a banquette was designed with panels that would bring the same style and material to the eat-in-kitchen.

This project was such fun from beginning to end. Amy you did an excellent job mixing textures, colors and cabinetry throughout this beautiful kitchen!
