Before & After Kitchen- Pandemic Survival 2020-21 Build!

Looking at this photo, you would never guess what this kitchen used to look like!

They got the framing for the new beam across that opens up the kitchen to the Living Room, in before the lumber prices went thru the sky! The kitchen used to be cut off from the living room and accessed thru by a side opening into a slot, with a doorway on the other end. We blocked off the other doorway and opened it up to the rest of the Living Room, so that it flowed with the rest of the house.

The final results are quite the transformation. The neighbors think that they are running a cooking show at night, because it looks like a stage set:-) If that is not a compliment, I am not sure what is. Kudos to these clients for sticking it out thru the pandemic without a kitchen for 3 months!!!!

Kitchen for new House on San Juan Island

This new kitchen will be open to the Dining Room.

This shot pans to the left more, so that you can see the relationship of the living room to kitchen.

This is the view if you were a bird hovering over the deck looking into the house. The Dining Room is in a Greenhouse of fetch deck, facing South, so in the winter months it will be a nice place to hang out.

Here is a view looking into the house with the roof and 2nd floor removed, so that you can se inside and the relationships of the rooms.

HANGAR HOUSE IN THE WORKS!

Off the Airstripe on Orcas Island, WA

The owner’s Fiat will fit perfectly in the entry carport!

A large covered porch

A large covered porch off the rear of the “Wing Shaped” house will be the preferred hang out spot to watch the incoming and out-going planes.

Kitchen Breaks Out!

This kitchen was once behind a closed door.

The Kitchen now opens up to the Dining Room and the rest of the Living Room

Here is the view that it was cut off from before. It really made a huge difference. The kitchen is now united with the rest of the space.
