Daryl and Mark’s kitchen remodel blends rustic warmth with modern sophistication, creating a space that feels both inviting and refined. The grain-matched cherry slab cabinets are the standout feature, with a rich stain that highlights the natural beauty and movement of the wood. Sleek countertops and stainless steel appliances introduce clean, contemporary lines, while a spacious island anchors the layout, providing additional seating, storage, and a central gathering place. Thoughtful touches — including a custom backsplash and layered lighting — add depth and character, resulting in a kitchen that is ideally suited for both everyday living and entertaining.
Project Specifications
The Transformation
Daryl and Mark wanted to make their kitchen more functional, both in storage and workable space. We moved appliances around and installed a flush hood into their ceiling to provide great ventilation while not obstructing the view through the room. This change allows for great workable counter space around the sink and range.
