This transitional kitchen remodel combines classic charm with modern convenience, resulting in a warm, highly functional space perfect for both family life and entertaining. The layout centers around a massive quartz-topped island, offering generous prep space, informal seating, and plentiful storage.
A standout feature is the oversized wood range hood, crafted to bring layers and character to the space. This statement piece pairs beautifully with a mix of painted and stained cabinetry, blending soft, neutral tones with rich wood finishes to create depth and visual interest. The cabinetry is custom-designed for both aesthetics and storage efficiency, with thoughtful details like pull-out trays, deep drawers, and integrated wine storage.
A walk-in hidden pantry, concealed behind seamless cabinetry panels, keeps dry goods and small appliances out of sight, preserving the kitchen’s clean, tailored look.
Adding to the character of the space are vintage-inspired light fixtures, strategically placed to enhance ambiance and highlight key design elements like the island and hood. These fixtures lend a touch of old-world charm and craftsmanship, complementing the transitional style.
Adjacent to the kitchen, a mudroom area with a built-in bench and cubby storage offers a practical, stylish solution for organizing daily essentials. Finished in coordinating cabinetry and materials, the mudroom ensures a smooth transition between all views of the room.
Blending timeless materials with modern sensibilities, this remodel delivers a kitchen that is both elegant and livable, with design details that will remain relevant for years to come.
