The challenge: remodel this home to retain the classic style and feel while updating and upgrading integral elements. Our plan: We saved some of the original kitchen cabinets, and our Master Cabinetmaker built new cabinets to duplicate the style and finish. All floor tile, countertops, backsplash tile, and colors were chosen specifically as they related to the house as a whole. In the bathroom, we saved the wrought iron towel bars and incorporated them into the new design.
