Get an Eco-Friendly, Durable & Practical Kitchen Design

At Kitchen Design Partners, we understand the importance of a gorgeous, well-designed, and sustainable kitchen. Like many others, we believe that the kitchen is the heart of any home. That’s why, when renovating my old farmhouse kitchen, our goal was to create a space that not only looked beautiful but also functioned seamlessly.

We wanted to ensure that every detail, from the eco-friendly and durable materials to the thoughtfully planned layout, came together to create the modern farmhouse kitchen of our dreams. The end result? A gorgeous, practical, eco-conscious kitchen that ties everything together nicely. Cooking in a space that is both fun and easy to navigate has never been so enjoyable.

Unlock the True Potential of Your Home Kitchen with Expert Design

When we first stepped into the kitchen, we immediately noticed some significant initial layout challenges that we decided needed our attention. The oversized hood dominated the space, making it feel cramped and uninviting. And let’s not even begin talking about the inconvenient garage entrance – seriously, who thought that was a good idea? But the most frustrating aspect was the disconnected back wall, flooring, plan, wall, sink, and kitchen island, which made it difficult to navigate, and everything seemed to be in the wrong place.

As a result, the functionality of the kitchen was greatly affected, making it harder to cook, entertain, and truly enjoy the space. Thankfully, with careful planning and the expertise of Kitchen Design Partners, we were finally able to transform the kitchen into a welcoming and functional space that our entire family loves to spend time in.

Add Family Entrance and Reconfigure Your Kitchen for a Fresh Look

At Kitchen Design Partners, we had clear objectives and ideas in mind for the renovation of this space. Our top priority was to add a family entrance, providing a dedicated area for the family to come and go without interrupting the main flow of the house. We also knew that reconfiguring the kitchen was a must. The outdated layout was hindering the functionality of the space. Here’s where our architects truly shone – they created a more open and connected feel throughout. The end result? A fresh, light, bright, modern space that any family would absolutely love to call home.

Create a Functional & Stylish Environment in No Time

At Kitchen Design Partners, we understand that you might be eager to refresh and enhance your home. That’s why we offer strategic design solutions that can truly transform your space into a functional and stylish environment. Let’s start by focusing on the mudroom area. With some creative thinking, we can help you create a designated drop zone for shoes, jackets, and bags that won’t disrupt your daily routine.

Our team can also assist with reconfiguring basement stairs to maximize your square footage and create a more inviting atmosphere. Lastly, we can help you achieve an open-plan layout and dining area that seamlessly connects your kitchen with the living room and dining room areas. This will not only simplify entertaining but also foster a greater sense of togetherness during quality family time.

Create a Harmonious Look With Our Material Selection Options

At Kitchen Design Partners, we understand the significance of aesthetic choices in transforming your home. When it comes to decorating, the combination of light-stained wood cabinets, white cabinets, and navy accents in a custom kitchen serves as a fantastic example of how layering different colors can create a sophisticated and modern look. But it doesn’t stop at colors alone – selecting various paint and countertop materials plays a vital role in establishing a harmonious space.

By utilizing repeating finishes throughout different areas, we can bring everything together and achieve a sense of unity in your home. Whether you’re renovating, painting the kitchen, or enhancing the living room, don’t underestimate the impact that our aesthetic choices in paint color and countertop material selection can have on your space.

We bring you a home that seamlessly combines sustainability and style. Our gem of a home features all-electric appliances and energy-saving Energy Star-certified features, allowing you to reduce your carbon footprint while enjoying all the details and comforts of your new space.

But wait, that’s not all – our custom hood with artisanal wood and stone finishes adds a touch of elegance to the kitchen, and our farmhouse-style cabinets on the countertop bring rustic country charm to the space. On the walls, we have incorporated grooved panels that pay homage to traditional aesthetics while maintaining a modern edge. With our perfect blend of old-world charm, natural light, and contemporary design, you’ll have the home of your dreams.
