Winner: Midwest Remodeling Services - Marlo Kitchen
"For this cost-effective kitchen remodel, the primary goal was to create a functional, modernized space with increased storage and usability, all while navigating the challenges of a uniquely shaped kitchen with multiple ceiling heights. We maximized the available space by adding open shelving where traditional upper cabinets weren’t feasible and used the large entry hallway to create a bar-style eating area. Additionally, separating the rear entry from the laundry room allowed for the creation of a much-needed pantry, all while staying within budget.
One of the project’s most unique elements was uncovering the original green wood siding hidden behind the plaster, which we transformed into a stunning backsplash and focal point for the range wall. By utilizing historic materials and enhancing them with modern touches like luxury tile, updated lighting, and smart storage solutions, we created a highly functional and visually appealing kitchen. Our team’s craftsmanship and attention to detail ensured that every square inch of the space was optimized for both beauty and practicality."
