1880’s New England Farmhouse Kitchen

The details

One of the many challenges when working with a kitchen in an older home is configuring a new layout while maintaining the integrity of the space. The homeowner came to us with ideas and allowed for a full collaboration. Trusting our designers and clearly identifying goals, Foremost was able to discuss options that would allow for a simplified layout using unused space creating an inviting open floorplan.

Adding more cabinetry and functional workspaces, this kitchen was transformed into the perfect space for large family gatherings. Keeping true to the historical nature of the home, Foremost updated an existing pantry, providing a wealth of storage.

Features & Challenges of the Project

• Eliminating unnecessary entrances to the space to allow for a streamlined layout
