Project Overview
Located at 350 W Belden Avenue in Chicago's prestigious Lincoln Park neighborhood, this kitchen remodel represents a perfect blend of functional design and modern aesthetics. Our client's vision was clear: create a more open, inviting space that would better connect the kitchen with the living area, transforming the heart of their home.
The key to this transformation was the removal of a partial wall that had previously separated the kitchen from the living space. This strategic demolition immediately opened up the entire first floor, creating better sight lines, improved natural light flow, and a more social atmosphere perfect for modern living and entertaining.
We began by completely removing the existing kitchen cabinets, giving us a clean slate to work with. The old flooring was also removed and replaced with beautiful new tile throughout, creating a cohesive, modern foundation for the space. The tile selection was carefully chosen to complement both the kitchen and adjacent living areas, ensuring visual continuity.
Before installing the new elements, we completed essential drywall work on the kitchen walls, ensuring smooth, perfectly prepared surfaces. This attention to detail in the preparation phase ensures a flawless finish that will stand the test of time.
The new cabinetry was carefully selected to maximize both storage and style, providing ample space for all kitchen essentials while maintaining clean, modern lines. Premium countertops were installed, offering both durability and elegance, while the new backsplash adds both practical protection and visual interest to the space.
All materials for this project, including appliances and cabinets, were carefully sourced and purchased specifically for this renovation, ensuring perfect coordination and quality throughout. This comprehensive approach guarantees that every element works together harmoniously.
The entire process, from the initial design phase through final completion, took just 5 weeks. This timeline included all planning, material selection, demolition, construction, and finishing touches - demonstrating our ability to deliver comprehensive transformations efficiently without compromising on quality.
