From Dated to Dreamy – A Timeless Inviting Kitchen Remodel in Spokane, WA!

Point of view: You’re ready to breathe new life into your home, creating a fresh, open space that blends functionality with timeless style. You want a kitchen that feels bright and inviting, with room for everything from cooking to crafting. To make this vision a reality, you know it’s time to bring in an expert who can help turn your ideas into a beautifully transformed space!

Ready to refresh a beloved home, our client, a hard-working woman with a passion for DIY and crafting, sought a brighter, more functional space. It had been 22 years since her last update, and her goals were clear: increased kitchen storage, an open layout connecting the kitchen to the living room, a clean neutral palette, timeless style, and quality appliances.

Our client dreamed of a kitchen that felt light and fresh yet warm and welcoming. Inspired by her love for understated elegance, we opted for white cabinetry around the kitchen perimeter, soft green cabinetry for the island, and a muted green backsplash that timelessly introduced color. To enhance the flow, we removed the wall between the kitchen and living room, enlarged the window over the sink, and introduced full-height cabinets in the former dining nook, creating a convenient coffee bar and adding ample storage.

Our full-service design package included floor planning, mood boards, material selections, procurement, construction drawings, a detailed lighting plan, 3D renderings, budgeting, and construction management support. The main focus was the kitchen and living room, with updates to the downstairs bathroom, new flooring, and upgraded light fixtures throughout the home.

Before The Spokane Kitchen Remodel

Before the remodel, the home felt compartmentalized, with a small kitchen and poor lighting. Outdated vinyl flooring and cabinetry with soffits above limited storage and light.

Revealing the Timeless Spokane Kitchen Remodel

After our interior design transformation and implementation, the space now feels airy, bright, and incredibly inviting. As showcased, the full-height cabinets offer ample storage, while enlarged windows and updated lighting fill the kitchen with natural and artificial light. Removing the dividing wall enhances the flow of the home, making it perfect for entertaining and daily living.

Selecting Timeless Kitchen Materials that WOW!

Each element was chosen to harmonize, balancing neutrality with warmth and subtle color, while staying within budget.

We began by selecting warm mid-tone flooring to add character, combining durability with easy maintenance for lasting appeal. The waterproof LVP was ideal for the kitchen, offering stain resistance and long-term resilience with minimal upkeep.

Next, the quartz countertops feature light gray veining, offering a subtle, versatile pattern that complements any style and is durable and easy to clean.

The green tile backsplash adds a touch of soft color, acting almost as a neutral itself. Polished nickel hardware and fixtures add a sleek shine, standing out against the kitchen’s softer tones.

Finally, wood floating shelves in the coffee bar complement the flooring, adding warmth that balances the bright white cabinetry.

Here’s a glimpse of a few products featured in the kitchen:

1) Faucet – Delta Cassidy Pull-Down Kitchen Faucet

2) Island paint color – Benjamin Moore October Mist

3) Wall paint color – Sherwin Williams Oyster White

4) Pendant Lighting – Bellevue Hamblen Single Light 13.5″ Wide Pendant

5) Backsplash tile – Fireclay Manzanita Gloss 3×9

6) Counter stool – Pottery Barn Cline Counter Stool in Antique Umber

7) Sink Light – Schoolhouse Newbury 4″ Surface Mount with Ogee shade in Opal
