The kitchen, in many ways, has become the heart of today’s home. This project showcases what can be done to improve a small and outdated original ranch house kitchen. With a 10 x 20 foot addition, the old space was turned into a fresh modern masterpiece kitchen. Both kitchen and dining were expanded. The expanded rooms were blended together into an open and free-flowing space with higher ceilings. The design brought more natural light into the house and nearly doubled the size of both kitchen and dining spaces.
