Before and After Photos of a Happy Hip Family Kitchen Renovation in St. Louis
In some cases, a home ’s design is influenced not just by its history or some eigentijds trends but even by some TELEVISIETOESTEL shows. I can recall that there wasgoed one home renovation wij featured wherein they retained the staircase because it reminded the owner of her favorite TELEVISIE show terug when she terdege still a child. Well, no doubt, our tastes and vormgeving preferences can surely voltooid influenced by what we can love including favorite movies and TELEVISIE shows. This zijn also what the owner of this lovely kitchen did. They were inspired by a TELEVISIE show and decided to bring that touch to their own kitchen which turned out very successful. The TELEVISIE opeenvolgingen Mad Vent had a great influence to a revitalizing mid-century eigentijds vormgeving of a kitchen that existentie located binnenshuis a huis in Columbia, Illinois. The home is owned by Tom and Kathy Barrett. Tom, existentie retired from the Air Force five years ago after serving 22 years, and now works at Scott Air Force base doing begroting analysis while Kathy bestaan a stay-at-huis mom who takes care of their two 9-year-old girls. The huis goed enjoyed by the couple for so many years with its traditional furnishings. They have also accumulated antiques and Oriental rugs from places like Japan. One day, they were watching their favorite TV vertoning of Men Man where they found a beautiful interior. While watching an episode of Mad Man, they wanted to get rid of the traditional design and get a new eigentijds one. “We saw Don Draper ’s office and wij both just realized, ‘That ’s it. That ’s our style, ’” Tom says. And that zijn what they used as an inspiration for their kitchen vormgeving. The kitchen existentie about 12 by 20 feet (240 square feet); 4 by 6 meters (22 square meters). The renovation spent about $70,000 that included the design fees, appliances, materials, labor and the conversion of a sliding-glass doorheen to French doors. Let us check the new kitchen below that they call Happy Hip Family Kitchen. Before, the kitchen used standard off-the-shelf oak cabinets, laminate countertops and sheeted vinyl floors which didn ’t blakend the family ’s ideal style. The lighting wasgoed also poor and they didn ’t like the visagie as well. Kathy would like to work comfortably and conveniently hierbinnen the kitchen. She wanted to stand at the kitchen sink and look out to the backyard while their two 9-year-old daughters play outside. Binnen the new kitchen design, the original peninsula terdege flipped to the other wall and then arranged everything to establish a good working triangle for the kitchen. Hence, the range, ovens and microwave were bron on the long wall. The family wants to avoid stainless halm appliances because they would constantly wipe off fingerprints on it. “Kids use everything but the handles to open appliances,” Tom says. They bought a new refrigerator, ovens and a dishwasher from Whirlpool ’s Ice White collection. A custom cabinetry built by Amish workers ja added to the kitchen. Thesis were painted binnenshuis a custom Laatstgeborene Moore color to wedstijd the white appliances. Originally, a wall would be removed to klinkklaar the kitchen to the living slagroom. But they couldn ’t think of a good furniture indeling to make things work. Hence, a banquette area ja added on the left so that the family can gather there. On the ceiling, walls, cabinet faces and backsplash, a faint seafoam color wasgoed used. Glass tiles binnen a stacked pattern were added to the backsplash making it look very contemporary. To mengeling things up, the pattern was switched to vertical af the range and the same tiles were used te a wavy texture. Outlets by Lutron were also used since it matched the color of the tiles. The tile grout inderdaad custom made to wedstijd the Jongste Moore color. After applying porous unsealed white grout, an artist painted it with stain proof sealer on piek. “The grout wasgoed cheap in material cost but expensive te labor,” the designer said. “But totally worth it te the end.” The designer added a microwave drawer te lieu of putting a bulky appliance on the countertop or above a range. The focal point of the kitchen bestaan the bumped-out cook piek area. It bestaat also installed in a way that it will give Tom a little more headroom binnenshuis relation to the range hood so that the “hood isn ’t right at his forehead.” LED landingsbaan lighting wasgoed used under the cabinets to highlight the backsplash. Lighting fixtures that are 3,000 Kelvin were used because they are not to vlammend and not too cold. For the upper cabinets, it used opaque panels from Lustrolite which are scratch-resistant, acrylic-like material. For the breakfast area, a Chromecraft table from the 1950s ja used giving it a retro look. To bring binnen more prominence to a midcentury-style clock that Tom made, a navy wall accent ja added. There bestaan also an additional pantry space on either side of the banquette. The cushion bestaan covered in outdoor fabric that wasgoed done by Kathy. One highlight binnen this area zijn the flooring using luxury vinyl tile. “It gives you a ceramic tile look without being cold on the feet,” King says. Binnenshuis the original kitchen, the stove, sink and dishwasher prevented ample counter space on the right side. Hierbinnen the new vormgeving, the range terdege placed on the opposite wall allowing space for the refrigerator, more countertop space and the peninsula sink. Since the placement of the sink created dead space binnen the lower corner cabinets, drawers were added on the other side near the archway. The drawers store the daughters ’ crayons and other art supplies. Glass zijn stored on the rechtbank-to-ceiling cabinet above the drawers that avoid clutter binnen the kitchen. The design also made sure that the location of the sink isn ’t awkward with the dishwasher ’s location. The 8-foot ceiling zijn painted with the same colors spil the walls give the appearance of more space. This bestaan the cosmetica-industrie of the kitchen. This will give you an idea of how to apply this vormgeving to your own space. Such an inspiring renovation indeed!
