This split level Portland home was just begging to be updated. Prior to being remodeled, this home had a small, outdated kitchen closed off to the rest of the living spaces. The clients wished to open up the space, make it feel more modern and bright while focusing on a neutral palate. The kitchen was opened up with rustic reclaimed wood columns/beam and features black lower cabinets and white uppers. The kitchen beautifully unites modern and more classic touches further with white subway tile, black stainless steel appliances and quartz counters.
