Tired of their boring and basic primary bathroom, this Austin, Texas, couple knew just where to turn for help. Designer Cameron Getter had already helped them choose furniture for their main living areas and update their guest bathroom, so they tapped her to update their kitchen and main bathroom as well.
The homeowners, who are parents of a toddler daughter, were looking for a soothing retreat with more warmth and an organic, spa-like feel. Getter removed the existing components, eliminated the tub (they have one elsewhere in the home) and relocated and enlarged the shower area. She also straightened out some angled walls. With the main design moves done, she introduced a warmer color palette with glazed aloe green ceramic tiles, a custom white oak vanity and brass details. Terrazzo-look porcelain tiles for the flooring and part of the low-curb shower add visual energy and interest.

These homeowners, parents of three daughters, made a move toward their retirement years when they bought this forever home outside Atlanta. Design-wise, they were starting some scratch, so friends recommended Meriwether Design Group. After checking out the designers’ work on Houzz, the couple called the firm to help them make their new build their own. Designer Meriwether McAdams had a hand in every inch of the design, including the cabinetry, finishes, lighting, furniture and architectural details such as ceiling beams, paneling and a new fireplace surround.
“They were getting close to having an empty nest, and this house is within walking distance of Marietta Square,” McAdams says. The square is a popular draw in Marietta, as it’s full of cute shops and restaurants. The couple knew they wanted neutrals, particularly contrasting black and white. The designer worked closely with them to add comforting organic and soft touches that keep the black-and-white contrast from feeling too stark.

After: Maney stripped the kitchen and started from scratch. “We knocked it down to the studs and added new windows,” she says. “New drywall, flooring, everything.”
Maney placed a new paneled refrigerator on the wall on the right, allowing her to put the new cooktop and statement walnut vent hood on the back wall. That allowed her to create a new walnut island with an uninterrupted soapstone countertop that offers plenty of prep space and encourages gathering. The perimeter countertops are also soapstone, offering a touch of contrast and drama to the white cabinets.
Maney extended the cabinets to the ceiling with crown molding to maximize storage and give the space a loftier appearance. New engineered white oak flooring in wide planks anchors the room in warmth.
Cabinetry: Crystal Cabinets; floor: Expressions in color Sonnet, Shaw Floors; wall paint: Accessible Beige, Sherwin-Williams; trim paint: Super White, Benjamin Moore

After: By removing the peninsula and laundry closet (behind the folding double doors in the previous photo) and taking space from a closed-off dining room, Malewska increased the footprint by 123 square feet. That left room for scads of storage, an island with seating for six and a breakfast banquette to the right of it.
The white island countertop, backsplash tile, and wall, ceiling and trim paint create a radiant base for gray upper cabinets, a maple island base and wooden lower cabinets. To keep the look clean, Malewska used Shaker-style cabinet doors and a paneled refrigerator that’s flush with the surrounding cabinetry. Honey bronze cabinet hardware adds a dash of gleam.
Counter stools: Vail in boucle and walnut, Denver Modern; cabinet hardware: Davenport pulls and Marion knobs in honey bronze, Top Knobs; paint: Anew Gray (cabinets) and Pure White (ceiling and trim), Sherwin-Williams

The homeowners found Laura Irion and Laura Peacock of Laura Design Co. through Houzz, and the team collaborated with kitchen designer Wendy Franz of Studio 912 to create the cabinetry layout and design. Using Houzz Pro throughout the process for proposals and invoices, Irion and Peacock selected the kitchen’s materials and furnishings. Irion says the homeowners’ taste leans toward contemporary and midcentury modern design, but their home’s architecture is more classic. So the team blended the styles to arrive at a timeless look.
The designers chose the Evaro inset cabinet door style from StarMark, a semicustom cabinet line carried by Studio 912. The clients were willing to embrace color and loved green and blue, so the designers paired green bottom cabinets with white uppers and a wood-tone island (all prefinished StarMark colors).
“I think that was just a really neat way to have a hit of color and some colored cabinetry without feeling like it was scary,” Irion says. “It’s hard to commit to a whole room of color cabinetry.”
To the left of the sink is one of the clients’ wish list items: a pullout for trash and recycling.
StarMark cabinet colors: maple in Marshmallow Cream (wall cabinets), maple in Moon Bay (base cabinets), alder with Oregano stain (island base cabinets)

This couple’s 1970s kitchen wasn’t giving them the inviting spot for hosting family and friends they wanted. While they were happy with the layout of the 160-square-foot space, their litany of grievances included aging off-white plywood cabinets, brown laminate countertops and beige tile flooring. Old appliances and a two-level peninsula also made things unwelcoming.
Looking for improved style and function, they turned to remodeler Art Kulch to help them create a more vibrant look with color and texture. New sage green cabinets and wood-look vinyl plank flooring elevate the space with nature-inspired style. Marble-look quartz countertops and glazed white backsplash tile lighten things up. New appliances and a streamlined peninsula make the updated kitchen a joy to use and entertain in.

A blue glass pendant light that previously hung in the breakfast area inspired the new look and balances all the clean lines with its vintage silhouette. Artwork and backsplash tiles in shades of blue and green complement the pendant and play nicely with cherry cabinets. The cabinets are a flat-panel style with horizontal pulls, conveying a midcentury vibe.
