Modern Colonial Kitchen in Lexington, Massachusetts

We achieved much better function for cooking and storage as well as bringing more natural light and updated lighting to the kitchen. The old layout was a struggle with fragmented storage spread out around the kitchen. It was difficult for two people to be in the kitchen at the same time and it didn’t flow well when cooking as the island was positioned as an obstacle on one end near the stove. The ceilings are high, and original wall cabinets were low with a soffit above them and this made the kitchen look dated. The new wall cabinets include transom cabinets and take full advantage of the high ceiling. By reconfiguring a soffit over the windows, we were able to include a transom window that brings more light into the kitchen. The client was careful about making decisions and took a long time to go through our process because any other project they hired someone to do in the past felt too rushed and they always had regrets and buyer's remorse after. We took our time and it was well worth it.The cabinets are Plato cabinets, full inset. The island top and wall inset behind the stove are special features-the stone is Blue Fusion Quartzite while the perimeter is Silestone Tebas Black. The new space is more beautiful, bright and has high function for the client's lifestyle in the kitchen.
