The Homeowner's Challenge
The homeowners wanted to transform their dated kitchen into a bright, open space that better reflected their style and supported everyday living. Their existing kitchen was isolated from the dining room and lacked seating, storage, and functionality. They envisioned a modern layout with a spacious island for gathering, improved storage, and stronger connections between the kitchen, dining, and living spaces.
Hurst's Approach
Hurst Design Build Remodel relocated the kitchen into the former dining room, creating a more open and functional floor plan. A large center island became the heart of the home, providing generous workspace and seating for family and friends. The renovation included opening the connection to the living room, installing custom Omega cabinetry that extends to the ceiling, refinishing the existing hardwood floors, and incorporating thoughtful storage solutions throughout. Carefully selected finishes create a bright, contemporary kitchen that balances style with everyday practicality.
