Diane Blank, Madison, WI -
Kitchen Remodel and Bathroom Update
We recently completed a kitchen and
bath remodel for Diane Blank in Madison. After years of thinking about
this project and looking for ideas, Diane decided it was time to just
get it done. She contacted our company after learning more about us
at the NARI home show. At that time, she knew exactly what she wanted
done in her bathroom, but the kitchen was a little up in the air yet.
She knew the space needed a major overhaul, including replacing her
vinyl flooring, which was already starting to peel up in some areas.
The main question, however, was whether to completely get rid of a
wall dividing her kitchen and front room, or just have a pass through
window. After looking at several designs and having many discussions
as to what would make the most sense, we decided to eliminate the
majority of the wall and turn it into a peninsula with seating on
one side. Next came the fun decisions – Diane had already selected
most of her new stainless steel appliances, so we needed to design
the cabinets around them, which was a breeze! The look of the cabinets
was a tough decision, but she ended up selecting maple as the wood
species with an autumn haze finish. This accented her new hard wood
floor perfectly – which she added to the kitchen to match what
was in the rest of her dining and front room. Starron solid surface
countertops and a custom tile backsplash finished the project perfectly.
Diane also had a lime green solid surface top installed in her bathroom,
which was accentuated with a small border of glass tiles around the
backsplash, as well as in her new whirlpool tub/shower combo!
