A Kitchen Transformation in Palm Aire
Transforming a kitchen is more than just a renovation; it’s about creating a space that perfectly fits your lifestyle. This recent project in the Country Lakes community of Sarasota’s Palm Aire Subdivision is a prime example of a dramatic, yet functional, kitchen makeover. The homeowners desired a contemporary feel while maintaining a sense of classic warmth, and the result is a stunning, sophisticated space. The unusual ‘L’ shape of the room meant plenty of space but ergonomics would need special consideration.
The Before
The Kitchen’s New Look
The foundation of this kitchen’s new look is its beautiful Stressless Cabinetry. Crafted with a Maple Simplicity door style, a classic shaker design, the cabinets feature sleek slab drawer fronts that instantly lend a more contemporary edge. The cabinetry is finished in a rich, dark coffee stain, creating a striking contrast that feels both modern and inviting. Carrying this look into the integrated wet bar creates an easy entertaining space.
To balance the dark cabinetry, the design team presented an elegant seafoam green for the countertops. A preference of the homeowner, acrylic solid surface was the material selected. This choice provides a serene and light horizontal surface, ensuring the room remains bright and airy. The countertops also seamlessly tie into the home’s overall aesthetic, creating a cohesive look and feel.
Beyond Kitchen Aesthetics
In addition to appearance, the kitchen’s functionality was a top priority. It now includes thoughtful storage solutions such as deep drawers, a convenient spice pull-out, and a dedicated trash pull-out. A full-height cabinet facing the range does the heavy lifting for pantry storage. The inclusion of roll-out trays in the cabinets makes accessing items a breeze, maximizing efficiency in the space. The hardware, stunning brushed nickel handles from Top Knobs, perfectly complements the cabinetry and adds a touch of elegance.
The transformation extends to the appliances, with new black appliances from Rice’s Appliances in Bradenton, Florida. Their selection enhances the modern feel of the kitchen and ensures a high level of performance. This kitchen is a testament to the power of thoughtful design, turning a dated space into a stylish and functional hub for the home.
