The homeowners of this retro inspired space, are a young couple that desired to create an open kitchen and dining area. The remodeling goal was to have a space to entertain family and friends. The challenge was to keep the architecture true to the original 1960s mid-century ranch home, while gaining the function of a modern day home.The major structural change came from removing part of the wall that existed between the kitchen and the dining room. This opened up a whole new world of entertaining space. Now it actually feels like they gained square footage by removing that section of wall. New updated appliances were added to give the homeowners fashionable function in a modern kitchen. The original hardwood flooring, was hidden under carpeting and was restored by local floor specialists.
