Reconfiguring the footprint made such a huge difference in the overall look, feel, and functionality of this kitchen remodel. And what was nice for the budget is that it really didn’t require a complicated reconfiguration at all. A small wall was removed, and the shape of the island was changed. And that’s that! Small changes, but huge results.
Our clients wanted a very light and bright kitchen (who doesn’t want that?!) but they weren’t big fans of pendant lighting. So the challenge was that we needed to make a relatively large kitchen very light and bright without the use of pendants. This meant LOTS of can lights, and finding the proper spacing of the lights on a vaulted, trapezoidal shaped ceiling was a bit tricky. But in the end it turned out perfectly.
