The project story

How this project came together

  1. 1

    The challenge

    The homeowners loved how their kitchen opened to the living room, but the space felt dark and closed off. Dark wood cabinets, a raised bar peninsula and limited prep space made it hard to cook, gather and keep the room connected.

  2. 2

    What we did

    Studio A redesigned the layout around a large center island with room for five stools. We replaced the raised bar with one continuous countertop, brought in bright white cabinetry with brass hardware, and added a tall pantry wall for storage. Clean stone-look counters, a white tile backsplash, statement pendant lights and warm wood-look flooring tie the kitchen to the living room.

  3. 3

    The result

    A kitchen that feels twice as open, with space to cook together, seating for everyone and plenty of storage. It was designed by Studio A and built for one fixed price.
