Although the size of this already-large kitchen didn’t change during our remodel, it feels much more open now, thanks to the elimination of the original soffits, columns and pendant light fixtures. We updated the 1960s styling with granite countertops, maple flooring and solid cherry cabinets including two built-in pantries and two china cabinets.
In conjunction with an equally dramatic family room remodel (see the photo in our "Other" portfolio section,) this project earned RCI a 2001 Silver Milwaukee NARI Wisconsin Remodeler of the Year award in the "Residential Interiors" category. In 2002 it was also awarded an MBA Sales and Marketing Council’s Standard of Excellence Award in the "Best Remodeling Project—Mid Range" category.
