FROM CONFINED TO CONNECTED

This North Wales kitchen was ready for an update after 25 years of builder-grade materials and a confined layout. The goal was to create a more modern, functional space with a stronger sense of design.

Creating a Focal Point

The original kitchen lacked a focal point. By expanding the space and adding a large island, the new range hood wall became a natural anchor and visual centerpiece.

The appliances were relocated to the sink wall, creating room for a deeper island and improved workflow. Expanding the kitchen into the former dining room also opened seamless access to the adjacent living room, creating a more connected and inviting space.
