This countertop, located in the space under the stairs, features an impeccable wood look. Since this shelf is in an enclosed area, laminate is a more cost-effective choice.

The gold handles add an elegant and modern touch to the kitchen's drawers and cabinets. The matte gold finish of these handles subtly contrasts with the white panels, lending a luxurious appearance without being overly flashy.

The Request

Maximize space, functionality, and brightness

Our client wanted a kitchen that was both timeless and modern, featuring high-quality materials while bringing more natural light into the room. She needed to maximize storage space and work surfaces, accommodating large appliances (36-inch range, oven, and a sizable fridge). Additionally, she desired a welcoming breakfast nook for daily use

The Challenge

Free up a wall without sacrificing functionality

The greatest challenge was freeing up a wall to install a large patio door without compromising the kitchen’s functionality. We needed to integrate large appliances while maintaining ample storage and workspace. Another challenge lay in utilizing the space under the stairs, which we transformed into a walk-in pantry.

Redefining the Space

The original kitchen was positioned against a wall with a small window, limiting the amount of natural light in the space.

Our designer had the bold idea to relocate the entire kitchen, freeing up space for a large patio door. This change not only increased the natural light throughout the kitchen but also created a spectacular sense of openness.

With this new layout, natural light floods the room all day long, and the stunning view of the pool and garden adds a calming aesthetic dimension. This redesign has completely transformed the kitchen’s atmosphere, infusing it with a bright and spacious new energy.

The Result: A Bright and Spacious Kitchen
Thanks to this strategic reorganization, the space is not only more functional but also more enjoyable, striking the perfect balance between modern design and daily comfort.
