This kitchen refresh is full of inspiring and inventive details. The owner of this corner condo with a panoramic view of downtown Minneapolis envisioned a remodel that transformed their standard, early-2000s interiors into a
modern-day, art-filled oasis. Faced with the challenge of a compact living area anchored by an L-shaped kitchen and eat-at island, ELEA HEALY – Remodelists incorporated artisan-crafted features into a lush palette of materials and texture with the goal of enhancing the owner’s dining, living, and entertainment experiences—all on a budget.
The resulting kitchen design is one of dualities: light and dark, masculine and feminine, existing and new. Black stainless steel, natural cherry wood, knurled brass, floral wallpaper, and more all contribute to the earthy, art nouveau aesthetic. LED tape lighting is integrated into the custom-crafted open shelving above the sink, providing both task lighting and display lighting for glassware storage. The hot-rolled steel backsplash offers opportunities for magnetic shelving and accessories, while function and beauty meet at the smart-tech Brizo faucet centerpiece. With the combination of industrial vibes and two-tone finishes, all of the fixtures blend seamlessly with one another. The resulting kitchen acts as a creative backdrop for the client’s activities, from cooking to Zoom calls.
