Arlene and Gerry's Small Kitchen Revamp

Working with small spaces can sometimes pose quite the challenge and when it came to Arlene and Gerry's apartment kitchen renovation this was no exception. Choosing colours and materials that worked together that flowed visually with the rest of the space and didn't create too much visual contrast was key, plus working within their moderate budget and current layout was essential. Lucky for Arlene, Gerry was quite the handyman and was able to tackle a lot of the installation projects, including the flooring and lighting, himself. Handy=Money savings!!

The result of their hard work, along with my guidance, is showcased below. The before and after displays just how a little vision and careful selection of materials can transform a ho-hum space into a functional and beautiful kitchen.
