The goal of this home remodel was to open up the kitchen and attached secondary “sun room” to create one large space with a cozy breakfast nook that would let in a significant amount of natural light. Replacing both the 70s-style cabinetry and flooring resulted in a full down-to-the-studs demo and rebuild. The design principles for the space were guided by the goal of returning the home to its 1910 aesthetic roots — developing a practical space for cooking, entertaining and storage, and bringing in as much natural light as possible. To ensure the kitchen had a bright, modern and consistent look, Cassandra LaValle, the founder and creative director of Coco Kelley and The Emerald Studio, favored Silestone Lagoon for the surfacing and bright white paint from Benjamin Moore.

Inspiration for the kitchen remodel was in the realm of “modern farmhouse,” with flourishes of the homeowner’s personality in the finishing touches that make the space unique. This is noticeable with the backsplash tile behind the range and the star-shaped pendant in the breakfast nook that tie together in a way that feels unexpected. Avoiding both anything too industrial or too precious keeps the space elevated without feeling overly decorative. It’s a true family and entertaining room where people feel comfortable sitting anywhere.
