This kitchen had a broken up layout that was not very easy to work with. With a few design changes we were able to make the kitchen more functional and they layout more appropriate for the family's needs. A separate bar area was created allowing for guests to stay out of the work zone when events were taking place. the decorative backsplash adds just the right amount of pattern and color to compliment the warm stain on the cabinetry. Dark cabinets create a contrast in the room and is great for hiding dirt and stains. The kitchen became the topic of conversation after it was remodeled and now has a functionality that the whole family can use.
