“Sage Advice” Contemporary Kitchen RemodelNorth Davis — Davis, CA
Before + After
The Program
Function and form are perfectly married in this elegant contemporary Kitchen's new design.
The clients came to us wanting to reimagine their Kitchen area hoping that it could become a place people gravitated towards. They wanted the space to feel natural, warm, and serene all while being highly functional as the family loved to cook and entertain.
A Place for Everything
It was important to the clients that the new Kitchen have meaningful storage solutions that create a dedicated home for all of their cooking tools and allow them to display specific kitchen items they loved - such as their beloved ceramic dishware collection. By adding a walk-in pantry, a Kitchen island with storage, a built-in hutch, a dedicated coffee appliance garage, and a pull-out pantry near the fridge (for frequently reached-for items) the clients now have a place for everything and clutter-free countertops
Color Story
In an early design meeting, our clients brought in a piece from their favorite dishware collection, which we used to inspire colors throughout the project. The dishware had a small accent sage green frog motif that inspired the cabinetry color. The built-in hutch now serves as a perfect display case for their dishware while also offering ample extra storage for other items.
Designing “Sage Advice”
The clients wanted to work within the existing envelope of their home but use the space more efficiently. By removing the existing peninsula and one of two pantries we were able to capture and add critical space to the kitchen. Every inch of their new cabinetry has intentional storage, making it so that the clients now have new places to store what was in the previous second pantry.
