Relaxed La Jolla Kitchen
Relaxed La Jolla Kitchen
This homeowner is a single dad with an elementary school-aged daughter. He recently purchased his one story home in the La Jolla hills and wanted a kitchen that was casual, a bit masculine, and reflected his contemporary taste and lifestyle. His main hope was that the remodel would give him and his daughter a chance to spend more time together by making home-cooked meals and relaxing at home.
The result was this rustic, yet contemporary kitchen with lots of counter space, high-end appliances and fixtures and plenty of storage solutions.
“The new kitchen is great to work in. My daughter and I are now cooking more than ever and really love the space. It feels so much bigger than our old kitchen.” says the homeowner. “It’s perfect for entertaining, and we’re hosting dinner parties more than ever before.”
The new design eliminated a small island that blocked the flow of the space and incorporated a larger peninsula that acts as a serving station for entertaining, and a breakfast bar for every day use.
The perimeter of the new kitchen features quartz counter tops and shaker style cabinetry. The backsplash is a glass and stone mosaic that extends around the wolf hood and upper cabinetry.
The result is a kitchen that fits the homeowner’s lifestyle and burgeoning cooking desires.
