Best Kitchen & Bath Before and Afters of 2018

BEFORE | Busy Cookspace

Busy patterns wrapped the room; old maple cabinets felt dreary. Lining one wall with all the appliances wasn’t the smartest use of space.

AFTER | Open Efficiency

With a functional work triangle, a breakfast bar, and a coffee station, the room is more open and efficient. Bold brass accents create a warm contrast with clean white and soft gray cabinets. See more photos from this remodel here.

BEFORE | Hemmed In

An unvented range sat in a peninsula that hemmed in the space; laminate and vinyl finishes felt dated.

AFTER | Island Craft

A slightly larger island crafted of salvaged walnut is a pleasure to look at—and work at. The tumbled-travertine backsplash and leathered-granite countertops add subtle natural textures and patterns. See more photos from this remodel here.

BEFORE | A Bland Space

The bland white bath lacked a shower and storage.

AFTER | Room to Grow

Now it has a new shower over the tub, a vanity in place of a pedestal sink, smart black-and-white finishes, and a fun hit of color on the ceiling. See all photos from this remodel here.

BEFORE | Cramped Space

The original green tile and built-in vanity had their charm, but the cramped bath was way too tight for two.

AFTER | Shared Bath

With almost double the square footage, the room is now bright and airy, with a luxurious spa tub, a spacious shower, and a vaulted ceiling. See more photos from this remodel here.
