Petaluma Craftsman Style Kitchen Updated with Love

This 1926 Craftsman in Petaluma needed updating while keeping the integrity of the original kitchen. Newer cabinets were added while the footprint remained close to the original including new hidden appliance centers, and a happy corner for the red hot pot with under cabinet lighting. A custom movable island / breakfast bar was built to match the cabinets painted in a soft gray. These clients came to me to make sure the finishes would connect in the room and with the rest of the home they have occupied for nearly 30 years. I chose a large rustic gray checkered patterned floor in tough porcelain for a dramatic base, with glossy gray subways over the marble look quartz. Wainscot was added to match other areas of the house and we finished it with a gentle green that compliments all their red accents. The house called out for a classic look. Now they are up to date with a newer retro feel in the kitchen, housing all of their modern features and highlighting their fiesta ware collection.
