Traditional Galley Kitchen Remodel in Hollywood Heights

Homeowner Desired Outcome

As a gift for our client’s daughter, Blackline Renovations was tasked with designing and remodeling the kitchen, making it functional and beautiful while keeping within the home’s original historic architecture. In addition to the kitchen remodel, the homeowner also desired a dedicated laundry room and large master closet.

OUR CREATIVE SOLUTION

The kitchen remodel started with a complete demolition of the existing space. To create a separate laundry room and large master closet we were able to borrow space from the kitchen’s original layout to accommodate the homeowner’s needs. The more efficient, galley-style layout suited the size of the house perfectly and was updated with floor-to-ceiling cabinetry to maximize work space and storage.

Unique storage solutions for this kitchen included a large pantry with pull-out shelves, a dedicated TV cabinet, and large drawers beneath the cooktop. In lieu of a table, the owner opted for a dedicated breakfast bar/office station. This solution provided built-in seating without obstructing the flow of traffic through the kitchen.

We also enlarged the doorway from the kitchen to the dining room to open up the space. To let in as much natural light as possible, we installed beautiful French doors to the back porch which also matched the new, larger doorway.

The finishes for the kitchen include painted shaker cabinetry, classic subway tile backsplash, and durable quartz countertops. The neutral colors give off a classic elegance that complement the high-end stainless steel appliances and decorative light fixtures.
