Capitola Depot Hill Kitchen

This Capitola Bungalow’s 40-year-old kitchen layout was workable for the homeowners, but they wanted a cleaner, brighter look with glass fronted uppers to display their collection of fiesta ware.

Before:

Homeowner’s challenge:

• Outdated cabinets
• Refrigerator dominated the space blocked light from the window
• Dated light fixtures

Our solution:

• Moved refrigerator to a non-window wall
• Black quartzite counters; classic running bond backsplash in white
• Stove relocated to take advantage of natural light
• Recessed lighting and bright pendants
• Bright white cabinets and crown moulding
• Center island with walnut top and built-in wine rack

Our architect really understood the clients’ desires and kept the bungalow reference but created an upscale feel within a small footprint.  Having an experienced design team makes all the difference.
