Kitchen Transformation - Client's House

I have a client who remodeled his entire house.  It was so wonderful to work with them and neat to see how the same floor plan could look so different!  I will be showing different rooms as we go, but to start with, this is the amazing kitchen transformation!

*Note, I am not a professional photographer nor are these "staged" by any means.  Its a family home with a family living in it... Good enough!

Front Entry

This was my front entry when we first moved into the house.  This angled wall makes for a really akward space but it feels like it needs something to catch your eye.  These are all just items I threw together from my basement stash so I felt like we "lived" in it.

 

I knew this would be the perfect place for the board and batten walls I see all over the blog world.  Problem?  The awkward tile baseboards.  I knew what I wanted and those things stood in my way, taunting me with a challenge.  To remove and replace the drywall?  Paint it white and hope it blends in? Put new baseboards over top?  HMMM....

So I drew up a little sketch.  I wanted to see how I could space out the vertical bars.  Because the walls are different lengths they wouldn't have the EXACT same spacing on either side of the wall.  I wanted to make sure from a distance you couldn't REALLY tell that they weren't spaced evenly. 

As a designer, I love the finish selection process of building a house.  I love the floor plan design and space planning part of the job.  Decorating?  No such class in my 4 year design degree.  This part I never feel 100% about.  The mirror is the only thing I love about this space, but for now... 

Good enough!
