Transforming a kitchen in Folsom with effective and simple upgrades:
The Challenge: An Outdated Space
The original kitchen, while functional, felt outdated and lacked the modern conveniences the homeowners desired. The countertops and fixtures no longer aligned with their vision for a sleek, contemporary kitchen. The homeowners wanted a space that not only looked stunning but also enhanced their daily cooking and entertaining experience.
Countertops: Sleek and Durable
A significant highlight of this remodel was the installation of Bedrosians Talavida Quartz countertops. Known for their durability and sophisticated appearance, these countertops were chosen in a polished finish. Key details include:
- Mitered Edge: The heavy-eased mitered edge adds a touch of luxury to the surface, emphasizing the quality of the material.
- Waterfall Feature: The countertop extends seamlessly from the bar top to the counter below, creating a dramatic visual effect.
- Custom Layout: Faucet holes were meticulously placed to ensure functionality without compromising aesthetics.
These countertops not only provide a stunning focal point but also offer a practical workspace for everyday use.
Sink and Faucet: Where Form Meets Function
The sink and faucet combination in this remodel exemplifies the perfect blend of style and functionality. The homeowners opted for:
- Blanco Diamond Super Single Bowl Sink: This undermount sink in Truffle provides ample space for washing and prep work, while its composite material ensures durability and easy maintenance.
- Kohler Simplice Faucet: Finished in Vibrant Stainless, this high-arching faucet features a pull-down spray head, making it a versatile addition to the kitchen.
- Soap Dispenser: A matching Kohler transitional soap dispenser in Vibrant Stainless maintains the clean, uncluttered look of the countertops.
These thoughtful choices elevate the everyday tasks of cooking and cleaning.
Fixtures: Small Details, Big Impact
Fixtures play a significant role in tying the design together, and this remodel included several impactful upgrades:
- Garbage Disposal: The addition of an InSinkErator Badger 5 Compact Disposal ensures the kitchen remains clean and efficient.
- Electrical Outlets: Updated white Decora outlets and switches were installed to complement the new aesthetic.
- Under-Cabinet Lighting: Although under-cabinet lighting wasn’t included, the natural light from the open layout ensures a bright and inviting space.
Tile: A Contemporary Backsplash
The backsplash is a defining feature of this kitchen remodel. The homeowners chose Bedrosians Makoto 2.5×10″ tiles in Soji White Matte for a modern and clean look. Key details include:
- Horizontal Orientation: The tiles were installed in a 1/3 offset staggered pattern, creating a dynamic yet understated design.
- Trim Details: Matching Soji White Matte trim pieces ensure a polished finish.
- Grout Color: TEC Power Grout in Birch was selected for its durability and complementary tone.
This tile selection adds texture and depth to the kitchen while maintaining a neutral palette that allows other design elements to shine.
