Cosmetic Kitchen 101

COSMETIC KITCHEN REMODEL: This kitchen was transformed from a dated and uninviting space.  The update called for painted cabinets, new flooring, additional lighting, new appliances, and both functional and aesthetic details.  The renovation created a much brighter and enjoyable gathering space for the homeowners.

Location: Carmel, IN

Neighborhood: Woodgate

KITCHEN BEFORE:

Reason to Remodel: After 15 years of this dated kitchen, the homeowners decided it was time for an update! Functionally, the kitchen was acceptable to the family, but it was in desperate need of a face-lift for a more timeless look.  The improvements made in this kitchen can translate to other kitchens in need of a cosmetic update as well!

Design Approach 

3 biggest impacts:

1.) Painting the cabinets

2.) Replacing the flooring

3.) Adding strategic task and decorative lighting

A tile backsplash, along with undercabinet lighting, were added to finish the wall with warmth and variation.

New granite countertops, undermount silgranite double bowl sink, and satin nickel faucet were necessary updates for functionality and aesthetics!

The new gray paint color on the accent cabinets coordinates perfectly with the unique slate gray appliances.

Functional pull-out cabinet accessories make it much easier for the family to create meals more efficiently.

The homeowners had the kitchen, dining, and adjacent living room walls painted the same color for a seamless visual transition.

The details, of course, are some of the most exciting aspects of every remodel! The new crystal accent knobs, corbels, cabinet pulls, and electronics “nook” are the perfect finishing touches for these homeowners.
