This multi-space renovation included updates to the kitchen and wet bar, as well as the laundry room. To showcase all the unique details of this project, let’s explore the remodeling process and design decisions by space. 

In the kitchen, we worked within the existing floor plan but removed the wall between the kitchen and eat-in kitchen to create a large opening. Creatively hiding a large brick wall behind cabinetry allowed for a full pantry with hidden microwave and appliance storage. 

Incorporating a giant island that is large enough to seat six people aligned with the homeowner’s goal to host more often. While the countertops are primarily quartzite, the wooden butcher block creates the feel of a dining table. The prep sink in composite granite (as opposed to stainless steel) blends in with the countertop and provides durability. 

A textured subway tile backsplash offers movement through its tone on tone effect. The unlacquered brass hardware will patina over time. Our designers strategically placed the pendant lights – two highlight the cooking prep space, while the third acts as a decorative light fixture over the dining table.

The homeowner’s love of green served as the inspiration for the color-drenched wet bar. We painted the ceiling and the walls in a deep mushroom shade. The Negresco honed granite countertops provide an affordable option in the small space. 

We carried the unlacquered brass details into this space, creating a seamless transition from the kitchen to the bar area. ICON’s master craftsman Don designed the custom walnut-stained floating shelves, which allowed the homeowner to style her decor beautifully.

This laundry room renovation made the space more functional, making laundry day a breeze. Cream cabinetry and countertops that extend beyond the washer and dryer maximize both storage and folding space in a small area. 

The large sink allows for hand washing clothes, and the rod above it allows for air drying garments. Above this, open shelving provides structure for the homeowner to display her colorful village collection. Finally, the walls painted bright green embrace the homeowner’s love of the color.

This multi-faceted project showcases a balance between the homeowner’s personal style and the functional, beautiful details our team was able to incorporate as we executed her vision for each space.
