When my clients first approached me about remodeling their home, they didn’t just want an update—they wanted a reset. After years of living with dark floors, ornate moldings, and glazed cabinetry, the space no longer reflected who they were or how they lived.
They envisioned something completely different: light, openness, and simplicity. A home that felt calm, clean, and modern—yet still warm and welcoming.
What followed was a journey of transformation—one that touched nearly every room in the house, brought clarity to their style, and created a sense of connection from space to space.

A Vision That Ties it All Together
This was more than a kitchen remodel. From the family room to the dining area, home office, and even a new basement kitchen, every space was intentionally designed to feel part of a unified whole—without becoming repetitive.
Each room carries its own personality, but they all speak the same language: clean lines, timeless finishes, and functional elegance.
Cabinetry That Elevates Every Space
We leaned heavily into the Bria frameless cabinetry line from Dura Supreme throughout the home. It’s a favorite of mine for its tight reveals and clean aesthetic. We used the Reese thin rail shaker door style in multiple finishes across several spaces, which added an elegant, contemporary touch.
A Kitchen That Anchors the Home
In the heart of the home, we designed a kitchen that feels effortlessly balanced. A soft, natural wood stain on the island and hutch adds warmth and grounding, while light-painted cabinetry around the perimeter keeps the space bright and airy.
One of the standout features is the custom range hood—a striking matte black finish, framed with sconces and anchored by a quartz ledge. It’s bold but refined, and it immediately draws your eye without overwhelming the room.
The lighting played a huge role in tying everything together, from pendants over the island to sconces above the sink and the hood.
In the family room, we carried the Onyx finish from the kitchen hood to the base cabinetry with the Parker door style, flanking the fireplace and paired it with Canvas-painted shelves. The stone fireplace surround echoed the kitchen's quartz tones, tying the two spaces together beautifully.
A Home Built for Hosting
Just downstairs, we created a second kitchen designed for entertaining. With clean-lined white oak cabinetry, integrated appliances, and a palette that feels both modern and relaxed, it’s the perfect place for guests to gather.
It’s streamlined without being sterile—proof that minimalism can still be inviting.
Spaces That Support the Way They Live
Upstairs, the dining room balances elegance with simplicity. A herringbone feature wall adds subtle texture, while light-toned cabinetry keeps things cohesive with the kitchen just steps away.
We chose the Reese door style in Canvas, echoing the kitchen while complementing the light herringbone accent wall.
In the home office, we took a bolder approach – cabinetry using the Hudson door style in Cyberspace finish, bring focus and sophistication to the space where work happens. It feels grounded, personal, and strong.
A Trusted Partnership for Seamless Results
This project was a true team effort, and I was grateful to partner with Avripas Construction, whose attention to detail helped bring the vision to life. Every detail—from layout to lighting—was handled with care, and the end result was a remodel that not only looks beautiful but feels effortless for the family who lives there.
More Than a Remodel
This wasn’t just a makeover—it was a reimagining of how this family lives.
Every decision was about more than aesthetics; it was about creating a home that supports their life with beauty and intention. What we created together isn’t just stylish—it’s deeply personal, functional, and enduring.
