Kitchen Remodel gets Inset Cabinetry

Remodel Project – Shelby, NC

Objective: 

Update, brighten, and transform the kitchen into a newly remodeled kitchen with the focus on function. Creating a better workflow for this active family of five!

Deciding what’s important in a remodel can sometimes be difficult.  Numerous factors are considered, such as ways to work more efficiently, create more storage, and declutter while still keeping the influential style and beauty of the home a priority.

Kitchen Perimeter

Greenbrook Design helped the owners make a layout change. Originally, the homeowners wanted the range and refrigerator on the same wall.  The homeowners’ wish list included a 60-inch range, along with a large prep island. Greenbrook suggested the new layout would create a better workflow by placing the refrigerator on an adjacent wall, and the new island is now wider.

Unique Features – Walk in Pantry

To eliminate clutter and create a workstation, the new design expanded the pantry from a single door to a double door walk-in pantry, a command center for schedules and communication, as well as plenty of storage for canned goods and groceries. Now everything can be tucked away behind closed doors, but is still easily accessible and well organized.  Organization is of the utmost importance for a kitchen to function properly. An organized kitchen saves time, and this family likes to spend as much time as they can on the lake.
Homeowners’ Quote:
The design has allowed more organization via storage.  Our kitchen now functions very easily and enables us more efficient ways to prep, cook and clean.

Homeowner Quote:

“Love, love, love the kitchen. I truly don’t feel anyone else could have pulled this kitchen off in quality, service, or timing.

Throughout the process we had a few hurdles, but in the end, every person that came through our door was excellent and represented Greenbrook Design and Walker Woodworking extremely well.”
