About the Project
This early-1900s home required a complete kitchen transformation while preserving the character of the house. The project involved correcting years of uneven walls and outdated construction before the new finishes could even begin.
The Challenge
The biggest challenge was the home's age. Decades of settling had left walls far from plumb or square, and the original construction didn't meet modern standards in several areas. Before a single cabinet went up, the team had to establish true reference points throughout the space and address substrates that weren't ready for new finishes. Careful planning was the difference between a kitchen that looked good and one that would hold up for decades.
Before & After
The Result
The finished kitchen provides a functional, updated space while maintaining the timeless character that makes historic homes so special. The modern finishes blend seamlessly with the home's original architecture — the result feels like it always belonged there.
