Our Signature Kitchen Remodeling Projects
1. Modern Coastal Kitchen in Santa Monica

•Key Features: The kitchen features white custom cabinetry with a coastal vibe, quartz countertops that mimic the look of sand, and high-end stainless steel appliances. We added a large kitchen island with seating, perfect for casual dining or entertaining. The backsplash is made of ocean-blue glass tiles, bringing a touch of the sea indoors.
•Outcome: The result is a stunning kitchen that perfectly complements the coastal setting, offering both functionality and style. The open-concept design has made the kitchen the heart of the home, ideal for hosting gatherings and enjoying the serene ocean views.
2. Luxury Kitchen Renovation in Beverly Hills
•Project Overview: This project involved a complete transformation of a dated kitchen in a Beverly Hills mansion. Our client wanted a space that exuded luxury and sophistication, with state-of-the-art features and a timeless design.
•Key Features: We installed custom cabinetry with a rich walnut finish, complemented by marble countertops and a marble backsplash. The kitchen includes top-of-the-line appliances, such as a Sub-Zero refrigerator, Wolf range, and Miele dishwasher. A large, custom-built island with a waterfall edge serves as the centerpiece of the room, providing ample space for food preparation and socializing.
•Outcome: The kitchen now radiates elegance and luxury, perfectly aligned with the upscale nature of the home. The seamless integration of technology and design has created a space that is as functional as it is beautiful, making it a true showpiece within the residence.
3. Eco-Friendly Kitchen in Pasadena
•Project Overview: In Pasadena, we worked with a client who was passionate about sustainability and wanted their kitchen remodel to reflect their commitment to the environment. Our goal was to create a beautiful, functional kitchen using eco-friendly materials and energy-efficient appliances.
•Key Features: We used reclaimed wood for the cabinetry and bamboo for the flooring, both of which are sustainable materials. The countertops are made from recycled glass, offering a unique and colorful look. Energy-efficient appliances, including an induction cooktop and ENERGY STAR® certified refrigerator, were selected to minimize energy consumption.
•Outcome: The kitchen is a perfect blend of eco-conscious design and modern functionality. The use of natural and recycled materials has created a warm, inviting space that aligns with the client’s values, while the energy-efficient features ensure long-term sustainability.
4. Open-Concept Kitchen in Manhattan Beach
•Project Overview: For a growing family in Manhattan Beach, we were tasked with remodeling a cramped, outdated kitchen into a spacious, open-concept area that would better suit their lifestyle. The new design needed to accommodate cooking, dining, and entertaining, all within an open floor plan.
•Key Features: We removed several walls to open up the space, creating a seamless transition between the kitchen, dining, and living areas. The kitchen features custom cabinetry with a sleek, modern design, a large island with built-in storage and seating, and durable quartz countertops. We also installed a walk-in pantry and upgraded the lighting to include both task and ambient lighting options.
•Outcome: The remodel has completely transformed the home’s layout, making the kitchen the central hub for family activities. The open-concept design has not only improved functionality but also enhanced the overall flow and feel of the home, making it more conducive to both everyday living and entertaining.
Kitchen Remodeling Trends in Southern California
Our experience in Southern California has shown us that homeowners here are drawn to certain trends that reflect both the local lifestyle and broader design movements. Here are some of the trends we’ve incorporated into our kitchen remodeling projects:
1. Minimalist Design with a Focus on Functionality
•Trend Overview: Homeowners are increasingly favoring minimalist designs that emphasize clean lines, uncluttered spaces, and a focus on functionality. This approach creates a serene and efficient kitchen environment.
•Project Example: The sleek cabinetry and open shelving in our Manhattan Beach project exemplify the minimalist trend while providing ample storage and workspace.
2. Eco-Friendly and Sustainable Design
•Trend Overview: Sustainability is a growing concern for many Southern California homeowners. Eco-friendly materials, energy-efficient appliances, and sustainable practices are becoming more prevalent in kitchen remodels.
•Project Example: The use of reclaimed wood and recycled glass in our Pasadena kitchen demonstrates our commitment to sustainable design.
3. Smart Kitchens with Integrated Technology
•Trend Overview: As technology becomes more integrated into our daily lives, smart kitchens are becoming a must-have feature. From smart refrigerators to automated lighting systems, technology enhances both convenience and energy efficiency.
•Project Example: The smart appliances and lighting in our Beverly Hills kitchen add a layer of sophistication and ease to the space.
4. Two-Tone Cabinetry
•Trend Overview: Two-tone cabinetry is a trend that adds visual interest and contrast to the kitchen. Pairing light upper cabinets with darker lower cabinets, or mixing materials, creates a dynamic look.
•Project Example: In our Santa Monica project, the combination of white upper cabinets and wood lower cabinets created a beautiful, balanced aesthetic.
Key Elements of a Successful Kitchen Remodel
As demonstrated in our projects, several key elements contribute to a successful kitchen remodel. These elements ensure that the space is not only beautiful but also highly functional and tailored to the needs of the homeowner.
1. Custom Cabinetry and Storage Solutions
•Overview: Custom cabinetry is a hallmark of our kitchen remodeling projects. We believe that every kitchen should have storage solutions tailored to the homeowner’s needs, whether it’s a pull-out spice rack, deep drawers for pots and pans, or a custom pantry.
•Example: In our Beverly Hills project, the custom walnut cabinetry provided ample storage while adding a touch of luxury to the space.
2. High-Quality Materials
•Overview: The materials chosen for a kitchen remodel significantly impact its durability and aesthetic appeal. We work with only the finest materials, whether it’s marble, quartz, reclaimed wood, or high-end stainless steel.
•Example: The use of recycled glass countertops in our Pasadena project not only provided a unique look but also supported the client’s eco-friendly goals.
3. Smart Home Technology Integration
•Overview: Modern kitchens are increasingly incorporating smart home technology, from Wi-Fi-enabled appliances to smart lighting systems. We ensure that technology is seamlessly integrated into the design for convenience and efficiency.
•Example: In our Beverly Hills kitchen, we installed smart appliances that can be controlled remotely, adding a layer of convenience to the luxurious setting.
4. Open-Concept Layouts
•Overview: Open-concept kitchens are ideal for modern living, creating a space that flows naturally into other areas of the home. This layout is perfect for families and those who love to entertain.
•Example: Our Manhattan Beach project is a prime example of how removing walls and creating an open floor plan can transform the functionality and feel of a home.
5. Attention to Detail
•Overview: The details are what make a kitchen truly stand out. From custom hardware and fixtures to personalized design elements, we ensure that every aspect of the kitchen reflects the homeowner’s style and preferences.
•Example: In our Santa Monica project, the ocean-blue glass tile backsplash added a personal touch that tied the entire coastal design together.
