A Reimagined Kitchen

Small Kitchen Transformation

The owners of this Beaverton home wanted their kitchen transformed – while it had newer cabinets, countertops, and appliances, the layout wasn’t functional. Limited counter space and storage forced them to use wire baskets as a makeshift pantry.

Project Goals

For this Portland kitchen remodel we focused on maximizing unused space. We added 10 linear feet of custom cabinetry along a bare wall, matching the existing cabinets while introducing butcher block countertops as an accent. Rather than completely removing the wall between the kitchen and living room – a costly option – we created a half wall with bar-height seating. The new butcher block bar ties in with the counters, while blue porcelain subway tile backsplash complements the white cabinets throughout.

The reimagined kitchen now serves as both a functional cooking space and social hub, with ample storage and workspace replacing the former cramped layout.
