Ground Floor Remodel
This project is exciting for our clients as they are completely opening up one side of their ground floor to make a large kitchen/diner they can relax and entertain in.
With such a large room my clients wanted to make sure the design was right first time so we designed this floorplan for them. Now when you walk into the space from the hallway you are met by a large open plan space with a central island which is the perfect gathering spot. To the left of the entrance door we created a seating area that is perfect for when guests come round and for the whole family to be together in the same space whether they are cooking, relaxing or studying.
To the left of the seating area we created a coffee bar / bar area for additional storage and a more unique design. For the kitchen we wanted to give our clients as much cabinet and worktop space as we could so we wrapped the cabinets around the corner and integrated the dish washer, cooker, microwave and fridge allowing the sink to be under the window with views into the garden. We wanted to make a statement with the large central island which is great for food prep and gives the people on the bar stools plenty of space to stretch out.
To the right of the kitchen we added a log burner by the French doors to give this space a cosy feel in the winter months and to give the elevation a beautiful focal point. We also placed a dining table in the space which can be tucked back against the wall when not in use to give our clients as much space as possible, or be pulled out when guests are round which would look right out of the French doors and into their garden.
To the right of the kitchen my clients currently have a small snug space that is currently accessed through their living room on the other side of the house. As we have removed their utility room and toilet we have relocated these two rooms to the snug which was never used previously. The utility room is now smaller to not take up as much space as it previously did and the downstairs toilet is now central to the home.
