The existing 12’ X 12’ peninsula-based kitchen presented quite a challenge for a growing amount of activity in both everyday family life and entertaining friends and colleagues. Neither the style nor the size of the current kitchen was sufficient for the homeowner’s needs. Based on family and entertaining needs, the customers wanted significantly more space, larger appliances, and an island-based layout.

The objective of this remodel was to create a modern look using as much of the original components as possible.  One aspect that did need to be addressed, however, was the long partition wall that created a distinct barrier between the kitchen and living space.
