From 1980 to 2016

It was time to bring this 1980s contemporary kitchen up to current times. Gegg Design & Cabinetry worked with the homeowners to improve the functional flaws of their previous space. While no walls or windows were moved, this was a major transformation of the kitchen. Gone are the curved corners, mirror backsplashes and gold accent channel doors. One great feature that stayed is the large skylight in the open beam section of the ceiling. This feature helped the room feel taller and was enhanced with LED lighting to illuminate the space at night. 

Rustic Renovation

Center of Attention

Open and Bright
Faced with a kitchen that had been updated with misfit appliances, poor lighting and used cabinets, the homeowners of this mid-century brick ranch wanted to open up the sight lines and let natural light into the kitchen, while making the space feel like the rest of the house. Other things on the wish list included a walk-in pantry for storage, butler’s pantry and island. Designer Chris Berry of brooksBerry took on the renovation.

Traditional Detailing

Hub of the House
With the kitchen as a central part of their new custom home, the homeowners wanted it to serve as the social hub of the house. To create a kitchen that was the center of activity and a natural gathering spot, architect ARBA Studios designed a kitchen that links the living room, breakfast area, dining room and outdoor living area, while also being convenient to the garage and mudroom entry. The design orients the kitchen’s ample windows toward the private backyard.
