This family created a great, lakeside get-away for relaxing weekends in the northwoods. This new build maximizes their space and functionality for everyone! Contemporary takes on more traditional styles make this retreat a one of a kind.

Susan Fisher Photography This compact Kitchen was opened up to the Living Area to lighten and brighten the apartment. The IKEA cabinets allow for an enormous amount of storage and the porcelain counter tops are low maintenance.

The Project Una and Pat bought this house with their young family and spent many happy years bringing up their children in this home. Now their children have grown up and moved away, it was time to update the house to fit their new lives and refresh their style. Awkward Space They had already undertaken some large projects years beforehand, adding a wrap around extension that linked their kitchen and garage together, whilst providing a dining room and utility space. However, by keeping the original kitchen, guests were squeezed passed the chef by the door, shown through the utility room before sitting down for their meal in a room that felt quite isolated from the rest of the house. It was clear that the flow just wasnt working. By taking the rather radical step of knocking through an old window that had been blocked up during the extension, we could move the doorway towards the centre of the house and create a much better flow between the rooms. Zoning At first Una was worried that she would be getting a much smaller kitchen as it was now fitting into the utility room. However, she didn't worry long as we carefully zoned each area, putting the sink and hob in the brightest areas of the room and the storage in the darker, higher traffic areas that had been in the old kitchen. To make sure that this space worked efficiently, we acted out everyday tasks to make sure that everything was going to be in the right space for THEM. Colours & Materials Because we used a local cabinetmaker to turn plans into reality, Una had an almost unlimited choice of doors to choose from. As a keen amature artist, she had a great eye for colour but she was even braver than I had expected. I love the smoked woodgrain door that she chose for the base units. To keep the bright and calm feel, we paired it with a soft grey door on the wall and tall units and also used it on the plinth to create a floating feel. Una and Pat used a new worktop material called Compact Laminate which is only 12mm thick and is a brilliant new affordable solid worktop. We also used it as a splashback behind the sink and hob for a practical and striking finish. Supporting Local Because we used a local cabinetmaker, they could add some great twists that we couldn't have had from buying off the shelf. There is actually a hidden cupboard in the area going through the arch, a handle would have been a hip bruiser so we used a secret push to open mechanism instead. They also took that extra care when making the units, if you look carefully on the drawers, you will see the same grain runs down all three drawers which is beautiful.

This beautiful home highlights the modern shaker variant of a traditional routed door style. With 2pac painted cabinetry combined with Quantum Quartz Bianco Venato Quartz, it really does turn heads.

This kitchen is a prime example of beautifully designed functionality. From the spacious maple butcher block island & eating bar to the roll-up pass through window for outdoor entertaining, the space can handle whatever situation the owners throw at it. The Espresso stain on these Medallion cabinets of Cherry wood really anchors the whimsy of the yellow bar stools and the ginger-tone checkerboard Marmoleum floor.

For this traditional kitchen remodel the clients chose Fieldstone cabinets in the Bainbridge door in Cherry wood with Toffee stain. This gave the kitchen a timeless warm look paired with the great new Fusion Max flooring in Chambord. Fusion Max flooring is a great real wood alternative. The flooring has the look and texture of actual wood while providing all the durability of a vinyl floor. This flooring is also more affordable than real wood. It looks fantastic! (Stop in our showroom to see it in person!) The Cambria quartz countertops in Canterbury add a natural stone look with the easy maintenance of quartz. We installed a built in butcher block section to the island countertop to make a great prep station for the cook using the new 36” commercial gas range top. We built a big new walkin pantry and installed plenty of shelving and countertop space for storage.

The original oak cabinets where painted white but lacked space and needed a fresh new look. New 45" Stacked wall uppers installed with clear glass top openings. All base cabinets refaced to match. Old uppers where re-installed in the garage. Mtn. Kitchens Staff Photo Learn more about Showplace: http://www.houzz.com/pro/showplacefinecabinetry/showplace-wood-products

This 1901-built bungalow in the Longfellow neighborhood of South Minneapolis was ready for a new functional kitchen. The homeowners love Scandinavian design, so the new space melds the bungalow home with Scandinavian design influences. A wall was removed between the existing kitchen and old breakfast nook for an expanded kitchen footprint. Marmoleum modular tile floor was installed in a custom pattern, as well as new windows throughout. New Crystal Cabinetry natural alder cabinets pair nicely with the Cambria quartz countertops in the Torquay design, and the new simple stacked ceramic backsplash. All new electrical and LED lighting throughout, along with windows on three walls create a wonderfully bright space. Sleek, stainless steel appliances were installed, including a Bosch induction cooktop. Storage components were included, like custom cabinet pull-outs, corner cabinet pull-out, spice racks, and floating shelves. One of our favorite features is the movable island on wheels that can be placed in the center of the room for serving and prep, OR it can pocket next to the southwest window for a cozy eat-in space to enjoy coffee and tea. Overall, the new space is simple, clean and cheerful. Minimal clean lines and natural materials are great in a Minnesotan home. Designed by: Emily Blonigen.
