Project Overview: Logan Square Kitchen Transformation
Located in Chicago's vibrant Logan Square neighborhood, this kitchen remodeling project represents a dramatic leap from the early 1980s into the modern design aesthetic of 2025. Our client had lived with a dated kitchen for years and was ready for a complete transformation that would bring their home into the current era while maximizing functionality for everyday use.
The original kitchen, built in the early 1980s, featured the hallmarks of that era - outdated cabinet styles, worn countertops, and a layout that no longer met the needs of modern cooking and entertaining. The client's vision was clear: create a contemporary kitchen that would be suitable for 2025 and beyond, with clean lines, quality materials, and smart storage solutions.
We began the project with a collaborative design process, working closely with the client to understand their cooking habits, storage needs, and aesthetic preferences. This partnership approach ensured that every design decision served both form and function, resulting in a kitchen that's not only beautiful but also incredibly practical for daily use.
The cabinetry selection was crucial to achieving the modern look our client desired. We chose premium Italian cabinets in a sophisticated single-tone design that creates visual continuity throughout the space. This monochromatic approach gives the kitchen a sleek, contemporary feel while the Italian craftsmanship ensures durability and quality that will last for decades.
The single-tone cabinet design wasn't just about aesthetics - it was also about maximizing functionality and storage. We carefully planned every cabinet, drawer, and organizational element to ensure the kitchen could accommodate all of the client's needs. From deep drawers for pots and pans to specialized storage for spices and utensils, every inch of cabinet space was optimized for maximum utility.
The demolition phase was comprehensive. We removed all existing kitchen cabinets, stripped out the old flooring, and prepared the space for a complete rebuild. This clean-slate approach allowed us to address any underlying issues and ensure that the new kitchen would be built on a solid foundation with updated infrastructure.
For the countertops, we installed MSI Tier 1 quartz - a premium surface material that combines beauty with practical benefits. Quartz is virtually maintenance-free, highly resistant to stains and scratches, and offers the look of natural stone with superior performance. The MSI Tier 1 designation ensures our client received top-quality material that will maintain its beauty for years to come.
The backsplash tile installation added personality and protection to the kitchen walls. We worked with the client to select a tile that complemented the cabinetry and countertops while adding visual interest. The backsplash not only serves a practical purpose in protecting walls from cooking splashes but also acts as a design element that ties the entire kitchen together.
New flooring throughout the kitchen completed the transformation, replacing the old dated flooring with modern materials that are both durable and easy to maintain. The flooring choice was carefully coordinated with the cabinets and countertops to create a cohesive design scheme.
We reconnected all new appliances, ensuring proper installation and functionality. Every connection was done to code, with attention to both safety and performance. The result is a kitchen where everything works seamlessly together - from the refrigerator to the dishwasher to the range.
This complete Logan Square kitchen remodeling project took just four weeks from demolition to final completion. We delivered the entire transformation for under $40,000, including all materials and labor. The client now has a stunning modern kitchen that perfectly bridges the gap from 1980s dated design to contemporary 2025 style - a space they'll enjoy for many years to come.
