Kitchen Renovation Project

Location: Louisville, KY

Designer Credits: Monika Dixit

Project Overview:

This client wanted to change the kitchen cabinets, flooring, counter tops and appliances. The client fell in love with the ceramic backsplash which became the center point for all other selections. In addition to creating a whole new look, we added a custom island on wheels that can be moved around to accommodate kitchen tasks and entertaining.

We changed the whole look of the space by changing out the sterile white cabinetry for rich medium stained cabinets with raised panel door and brushed nickel hardware. We chose brown flooring and white quartz for the countertops all which worked cohesively with the colors found in the backsplash. The custom island is mounted on wheels lending to the flexibility of the workspace and the quartz countertops are chosen for a lasting and durable finish. All hardware and fixtures, including sink and faucet share a brushed nickel finish.

“We wanted the kitchen cabinets and flooring replaced. We also wanted a walk-in shower installed in a bathroom. We aren’t folks who spend much time thinking about decorating, renovating, or what is desirable in today’s real estate market. We started by reaching out to
contractors. They did not help us define what we needed. We were floundering, we needed help. We listed our project on a website that connects you to talent. We asked for a designer who would take charge of the project. Monika Dixit, Pinakin Design, responded. She walked us through the selection of cabinets, flooring, plumbing, appliances, etc. She was responsive and patient. Monika stayed involved in the supervision of the contractors implementing the renovation. We are thankful we had a designer, Monika Dixit, involved in our project. ”
