Kitchen Remodel

Family Gatherings A New Kitchen

The Gathering Place for Making Memories

With the holidays on the horizon, homeowners Mary and Tom Horgan started to make plans for family gatherings and opening their home to celebrate the season together. They had a relatively small kitchen compared to the size of the rest of the home. But they viewed the kitchen as the central gathering place for guests. They wanted to make space feel larger and have better storage.

Adrienne updated the existing space to maximize storage. With contractor Eric Petroski, they opened up the pass-through into the living room — shifted the faucet to the side to make for a more usable serving counter and extended the overhang on the peninsula for more working space as well as seating.

The cabinet style and finish were selected to coordinate with a hutch that is opposite the kitchen.

After: An open space for family gatherings.

Before: Plumbing pipes run throught the kitchen.

Deigner Touch

The homeowners wanted to extend the cabinets to the ceiling but there was a plumbing drain line that we could not relocate. Adrienne came up with a way to box in the plumbing and customize the cabinets on site in order to have taller cabinets. She came up with a wood crown soffit and tied everything together with some custom made floating wood shelves.

After: Custom trim, designed by Adrienne, makes the cabinets look taller.

Authentic Flush Ends are available on most cabinets where the look of a working door on the end is desired. The fixed door panel is applied to a finished flush end.

Before: The kitchen was dark and cramped.

The clients wanted to remove the soffit and relocate the range to make a more efficient layout. They loved the idea of a decorative hood and wanted to center design around that.

Designer Feature: Opt for taller-than-standard upper cabinets, which raise your eye level and make the ceiling feel higher.

Replacing solid cabinet doors with glass-front doors can add visual depth, tricking the eye into thinking the kitchen is more spacious than it really is.

Wilton Townhouse Master Bathroom Remodel

wpengine — Tue, 22 Oct 2019 20:05:56 +0000

A master bathroom remodel is one of the best investments you can make for your home, especially when it comes to resale value. Capitol Kitchens and Baths recently transformed a Wilton townhouse master bathroom, turning a previously uninspiring space into a luxurious, spa-like retreat. Here’s a look at how our Capitol designer Adrienne brought this vision to life and some valuable tips for anyone considering a bathroom renovation.

Transforming Carol’s Townhouse Master Bathroom into a Spa-Like Retreat

Carol’s townhouse master bathroom felt dark and small despite its tall ceilings. Poor lighting and a cramped layout limited the space’s potential, and Carol wanted a fresh, inspiring upgrade. Capitol Kitchens and Baths designer Adrienne stepped in with a vision to create a modern, spa-like bathroom transformation that added elegance and functionality to Carol’s home.

Key Features of This Master Bathroom Remodel

Enhanced Lighting for a Bright, Airy Feel
One of the main issues with Carol’s original bathroom was its inadequate lighting. Adrienne added sconces directly through the mirror, maximizing light distribution and making the space feel larger and more welcoming. This strategic lighting choice not only improves the room’s function but also enhances its aesthetics, creating a modern bathroom design that’s both stylish and practical.
Replacing the Tub with a Large, Walk-In Shower
The small, outdated fiberglass shower tucked in the corner wasn’t doing the space any favors. By removing the bathtub and installing a larger, luxurious shower in its place, Adrienne created a central feature that added a modern touch and spa-like atmosphere. For homeowners with a small master bathroom, replacing the tub with a walk-in shower is a great way to make the most of the space.

3. 3D Renderings for a Clear Vision
Adrienne’s 3D rendering of the remodel allowed Carol to visualize the final layout before any construction began. This 3D rendering technology helps clients make informed decisions on everything from layout to materials, ensuring a result that meets their expectations

Despite tall ceilings, poor lighting made the room feel small and dark. Adrienne added the sconces through the mirror to maximize light and give it an airy feel. The shower was a small fiberglass unit tucked into the corner. We removed the tub and put the large shower in its place.

Designer Tip: The details make the difference

In a small space like a bathroom, every detail matters: The right wall color, tilework or lighting can transform a dull, dated bathroom into a bright, stylish retreat.

Recommended Design Tips:

Use Mirrors to Reflect Light: Adding sconces through the mirror can double the light source and make a small bathroom feel more spacious.
Choose Neutral, Light Colors: Light wall colors, combined with natural materials like tile and stone, can make a small master bathroom feel open and airy.
Incorporate Hidden Storage: Built-in shelving or cabinetry keeps the bathroom organized and clutter-free, making it feel larger.

In the space previously occupied by the shower, Adrienne added two tall linen cabinets for towels and toiletry storage. Because the original fiberglass shower unit was deeper than the linen cabinets, we pulled them forward and added more tall storage on the side of the room by the entry door. This allowed us to utilize what would have been dead space in that empty wall cavity. Now she has room for her robe and hamper!

*Please note- we do NOT recommend starting demolition of your bathroom prior to speaking to our designers. You will be without a bathroom for 2-3 times longer and you might end up sacrificing your dream bathroom to be able to complete the job quickly.

Benefits of a Master Bathroom Remodel for Resale Value

An updated bathroom can significantly boost the resale value of a home. For townhouse owners, especially, a remodeled master bathroom with spa-like features can make a property more appealing to buyers. Features such as walk-in showers, modern lighting, and upscale finishes are high on buyers’ wish lists, making these renovations an investment that pays off.

Project: Kitchen renovation Designer: Adrienne Cabinetry: Kemper Dutton | white paint Design Goal: Create an open space that is unique, relaxing and functional.

Capitol designer Adrienne worked with the homeowner to create an open space where family and friends could gather comfortably. There was an obstructive wall located directly in the middle of the original kitchen that kept this space fully separate from the rest of the living and dining area. By uniting the kitchen and dining room, they created a wide open space for everyone to gather. Working with Kemper kitchen cabinets, the client chose a Shaker-style cabinet in white, which feels fresh and clean. The granite peninsula adds seating and opens up into the new dining area.

Floating Shelves
