Open-plan kitchen with a navy island and full-height windows

Clinton Kitchen Renovation

Clinton Kitchen

A full gut of a dated galley kitchen into an open-plan kitchen and living space, with a navy island and full-height glass on the rear wall.

The project

Removing the wall was the easy part

The original kitchen was a closed galley with a load-bearing wall between it and the living room. Taking it out meant a beam and new point loads carried down to the foundation, which is the part of an open-plan renovation nobody photographs.

With the structure resolved, the rest followed: a new island with power and drainage that were not previously there, a run of full-height glass on the rear wall, and white oak flooring carried continuously through both spaces so the room reads as one.

What the job involved

  • Load-bearing wall removal with engineered beam and new point loads
  • Island relocation including new electrical and drainage
  • Custom cabinetry in a painted navy and white scheme
  • Quartz counters with a waterfall end on the island
  • Continuous white oak flooring across kitchen and living
  • Full electrical rework including layered lighting
