These folks started their project with me because they were frustrated with their outdated kitchen. It was dark and cramped and it didn’t work for their lifestyle, since they love to entertain.
Their home is an old farmhouse, so we wanted the kitchen to still be fitting with that design, even after the remodel. We really got creative in opening up the space by switching the fridge and stove locations. We also decreased the size of their pantry closet (which really wasn’t that functional to begin with) and added the cabinet doors to create a hidden pantry look. We used DuraSupreme White Inset Cabinets, quartz countertops, a farmhouse sink and a subway tile backsplash.
Once we were finished, it looked like a whole different kitchen! It was now spacious, clean, and bright, with plenty of room for cooking big holiday meals and hosting a houseful of guests.
The homeowners were so happy with our work in the kitchen, they came back later to remodel the master bathroom and the second floor guest bath as well. Again, we kept a high-quality vintage farmhouse style in these rooms, which went along beautifully with the porcelain pedestal sinks and the clawfoot tub. We installed beautiful new flooring, custom tile and an awesome glass shower.

I loved working with this couple to help them recreate their beautiful home! They came to me because they had a very dark, dated kitchen and they wanted to brighten it up and make the space more functional.
To add interest and dimension during this kitchen remodel project, we bumped out a few of the cabinets. We also added a furniture base molding to really customize the look. We used DuraSupreme white painted cabinets, porcelain tile flooring, quartz countertops and a lovely marble backsplash, all in fresh white and dove grey colors. We personalized the look even further, by choosing textiles and accessories in their favorite charcoal blue color.
The end result is so clean and glamorous, and the couple was thrilled!
After a while, they decided to come back and remodel their powder room, master bath and then the basement flooring with us as well. I helped them with everything from paint color, to light fixtures, area rugs, and fabric for the bar stools. Working with them on their home was really special for me, because we created their signature style together, and then extended it throughout the house.

Larry Peterson Inc and Dickerson Nieman Realtors came to me and asked me to help to create the kitchen design and bathroom design for this new construction spec home. Our goal was to create an atmosphere that was really fresh and welcoming, something that would appeal to a majority of clients.
The builder designed the initial layout and, together, we modified each room of the home to create a perfect open-concept two story. I selected materials with warmth and texture in a neutral grey pallet. Warm grey and white tones are the most popular right now, and they’re also very adaptable to different design styles. For the kitchen design, I chose mid-level cabinetry, custom granite countertops, and luxury vinyl flooring to create this gorgeous Midwestern oasis. I designed all of the custom installations, and also hand-selected furniture, fixtures and home décor. The whole look flows effortlessly from room to room. Almost every element of this design project came from Benson Stone, including the exterior brick, the fireplace and the lighting.
This project was a lot of fun, because the builder and I got to combine our knowledge and experience to create a home that would be broadly appealing. We followed our instincts to build a home that the community would love. Did we succeed? Well… This spec home only lasted TWO DAYS on the market before it sold, and it inspired multiple other buyers to develop similar homes for themselves in the neighborhood! We are so very proud of this beautiful new construction project!

“We custom built our home and used Benson Stone Company for cabinetry and countertops. We worked with Erin and can’t say enough great things about her! She made our vision come to life! She had great suggestions and helped us every step of the way! We are so in love with our kitchen!” This Homeowner’s Review
When this young couple came to me, they were anxious to set the trend with an edge of Mid-Century Modern with their kitchen design in this brand new contemporary home.
We used different shades of white in the cabinetry and quartz countertops to make a huge, bright impact. The consistent straight lines ground the room, while the unusual angles add interest. We went with a mix of brushed gold & natural wood accents to provide some depth and warmth. The awesome new bar stools and lighting fixtures give that extra pop, and the tall ceiling with a unique X pattern is the icing on this cake. All of these products came right from our store, so planning and budgeting the project was a breeze!
Their large kitchen also features a hidden pantry that leads to the garage and laundry room and — you guessed it — we designed the laundry room too! Though we usually promote kitchens and baths, our clients often ask us to help with the design of bedrooms, living rooms, laundry rooms, etc. and we’re always more than happy to help!
The Fosters love their remodeled kitchen & laundry room, and still receive compliments on it to this day.
