Our Approach

Color and Light

The style and color of the cabinets, granite and tile backsplash were chosen to complement the rusticity of the original slate floor. A second skylight was added over the comfortable seating/fireplace area, adjacent to the kitchen proper, which really brightened the space.

Appliances

A combination of professional-grade appliances, granite and maple butcher block make the preparation of gourmet meals a breeze, even with family and guests gathered around.

A sleek new pantry/broom closet beautifully solved a chaotic storage problem.

Client Quote

"Jann's eye for what will 'work' is uncanny.  She brought ideas, listened carefully to our response, and then refined the ideas.  We started with a room that we agonized about remodeling and ended up with a project that we could get very excited about.  Every morning now, we get up ... go into the kitchen and are absolutely delighted with the results.  Also, she's an easy person to work with, and that was really important to us."
