The kitchen I'm sharing with you today exceeded every expectation I had for how it would turn out. We finished this kitchen in March, literally right before the lock down. I got the nicest email from the clients who were able to enjoy the new space while being quarantined. I have to say we have been enjoying our kitchen so much.

Very nice, fairly new homes in great neighborhoods with a big price tag, but a very average builder grade kitchen. My clients felt this was more of a "starter kitchen" that didn't fit their stage in life or their neighborhood. They asked for a "Grown Up … [Read more...] about A Grown Up Kitchen Renovation
