A beautiful Los Angeles courtyard home nestled in lush green surroundings needed an update to maximize the kitchen space and adjacent dining area. The design goal of this kitchen remodel was to maximize the existing space, create more storage and working areas, and update the appliances, cabinetry, lighting and fixtures. The owners had their own vision for the colors and materials used throughout. The design priority was to create a more functional and integrated kitchen/dining area suitable for cooking and entertaining.

The surrounding lush greenery was the inspiration for colors and design. It was important to maintain the casual, natural feeling of the landscape. The kitchen design continued into the dining area in order to integrate the two areas more naturally. The spacious room was fully utilized with the addition of full-length custom cabinet storage and an adjacent banquette with additional storage and seating. The remodel design expanded to create a dramatic entry and new guest bathroom.
