Showcase project

Rainbow Project

Proof that a kitchen doesn’t have to be all white to be worthy of a spot in a design magazine.

Location
St. Catharines
Type of project
Full home reno
Date completed
January 2023
A long kitchen with sage lower cabinets, white uppers, a patterned backsplash and stainless appliances
We turned this dark and outdated kitchen into a modern eclectic chef’s dream.

This kitchen has loads of personality with patterned tiles, matte sage cabinets, and earth-toned floors. The stainless steel appliances, including the built in oven combo and induction cooktop create an ultra-sleek look. The result is a space that exudes the polished elegance reminiscent of an interior design magazine feature.
