BIG WILLIE STYLE | REMODEL
X
The 1980's home had a great floorplan to work with but had so many spaces that were under utilized. The kitchen remained in the same footprint, but a large rectangular island created storage, prep space, and room for additional ammenities for this young family. The rest of the main floor also maintained it's footprint, but every single service was painted or refinished to create a cohesive feel that is inviting, warm, and comfortable.

Kitchen.
​
The space was already large and open so using darker elements to ground the island made it feel that much larger and more impactful.
"IS+DS opened our eyes to so much more than we thought was possible with our 1980’s, builder grade home. Leah created a seemless space that we love more every day. It’s just as functional as it is beautiful and we love that it’s our backdrop to living this beautiful life"

Living Space.
Keeping this space neutral, textured, and soft was a priority for the family to have a place to kick back and relax.
Cigar Room​

Truly the power of paint to fully uplift this space. The original wall molding was refinished to create a moody adult space

Powder Bathroom ​

A powder bath is always a place to take a few risks. The patterned tile and bold artwork pop off of the white oak and concrete.

Dining Room​
​
Because the kitchen is so large, the dining room doesn't get a much use. But, they still wanted it to be beautiful and playful.
