Artist's Retreat
The homeowners love the Pacific Northwest forest feel of their location and wanted to bring those elements into their Kitchen. We removed their peninsula-style Kitchen and completely transformed the look, function and size. The full-height backsplash tile is a clean look that brings in color and frames the view out of the windows. We also transformed the unfinished shed into an art studio, providing a functional retreat for the homeowners.
Project Details

Maximum Storage
Our designer adapted the kitchen design to the existing window locations and placed lower cabinets below the larger window to increase the counters and storage space.

Corner Pull-out
In order to solve the problem of unused corner cabinet space, we often install a Kessebohmer LeMans storage organizer. This cabinet organizer swings the contents out in front for ease of access. We also installed a large window behind the sink to maximize daylight and take advantage of the view of the tranquil landscape.

Art Studio
We converted the existing shed into a fully heated, insulated, functional art studio. Barn doors were replaced with beautiful French doors, creating a more accessible entrance. The rafters were painted blue to match the floor, creating a cohesive look.
What our Clients are Saying
“There's a couple of unique features, certainly the stairway; That's really an organizing principle when you come into the house. When you come into the house, you see the stairs and you see right out to that super view. I think taking advantage of the view, and the way it functions and flows, I'd put it up there as one of the best projects I've done.”

See the Vineyard House project“G. Christianson recently completed a major kitchen and bath remodel for us. We really enjoyed working with this excellent firm from the day we walked in the door until the final sign off. Anna, Jon and Elizabeth created a design that incorporated our ideas with theirs that is wonderful. It opened up our 1980's kitchen and made it much more functional and beautiful. The cabinets that Ron, Eric and Bill built and installed are perfect for our space and the quality, fit and finish are absolutely top drawer. The construction team, Tony, Maria, Gavin, Eric, Dennis, Bill, and Cesar were outstanding. Always, courteous, professional and clean. There was never a mess left at the end of the day. Their attention to detail and quality of work from the framing to the finish work was fantastic. Similarly, the sub-contractors were excellent. Jon, did an amazing job juggling the order of work to address illnesses and other unexpected interruptions to keep the schedule on track. This was a 5 month project and it finished within a couple of weeks of the original completion date. I've done some project management myself, and know how difficult this can be. We are delighted with the results and love showing off our beautiful new kitchen and bath. G. Christianson Construction is as advertised, a high quality, professional team that delivers what the promise. We highly recommend them. ”
