This interior renovation focused on reworking the home's layout, improving functionality, and creating a more cohesive connection between the kitchen, living areas, primary suite, and supporting spaces. We reframed to create the kitchen, mudroom, and powder bathroom, while the existing wood flooring. The kitchen and surrounding spaces were reworked to create a more open, functional layout with a strong connection to the adjoining living areas.
Custom millwork was incorporated throughout the kitchen, pantry, and mudroom, including new cabinetry and storage. The finished design combines painted cabinetry with rich natural wood accents, warm metal hardware, light countertops, and a coordinated backsplash.
Rather than treating each room as an individual project, the renovation brought the spaces together through consistent materials, architectural details, warm wood tones, clean millwork, and a balance of traditional character with updated finishes.

Yes, absolutely. Internal reconfigurations are one of the most effective ways to make a home feel dramatically larger and more functional without the expense of building an addition. By removing non-load-bearing walls, installing structural beams to open load-bearing sections, or swapping room uses (like turning a formal dining room into a pantry/mudroom combo), you can completely optimize your home’s existing footprint.
The key to a seamless renovation is blending historic details with modern updates:
Match Architectural Trim: Replicate baseboards, window casings, and crown molding profiles found in the original structure.
Honor the Era: Select materials, door styles, and hardware that complement the home’s original style (e.g., shaker cabinets for a craftsman, or raised panel doors for a colonial).
Weave Old and New: Blend original elements—like exposed brick, vintage doors, or original beams—into the new design so the updated space feels continuous rather than attached.
Timelines vary based on scope, but a typical full-home interior renovation follows these phases:
Design & Permitting (2–4 months): Finalizing drawings, selecting materials, securing municipal permits, and ordering long-lead items (like custom cabinets or windows).
Active Construction (3–8 months): Demolition, structural framing, rough plumbing/electrical, drywall, finish carpentry, and final fixture installation.
Total duration generally ranges from 6 to 12 months from initial design through completion.
