Sorority Social Space Remodel
A mixture of contemporary and traditional design
Our clients hired Deb Kadas Interior Design Studio to remodel the Sigma Kappa sorority in Corvallis. We worked very closely with Deb and the Sorority to upgrade their spaces (Recreation room, Sunroom, Student kitchen and Entry foyer) to meet their expectations and the historical detailing of this classic home. Sigma Kappa's leadership was so impressed with our work that they hired us back the next summer to reside their home and the following year to completely remodel the 2nd, 3rd and 4th floors. One of the benefits to using us for multiple remodeling projects like this is our understanding of the whole house as a system and our passion for energy saving. While doing the siding and interior remodeling projects, we realized that we had a unique opportunity to upgrade the building's efficiency at a significantly reduced cost. We added insulation to the walls, and ceiling areas which had none, and heavily upgraded the electrical and heating systems.
“We are repeat customers who demand high quality, high touch and tight time frames of the large scale remodel projects for our Corvallis sorority...”

Project Details
Convenient functionality
Custom cabinetry adds convenient functionality without sacrificing the traditional look of this kitchen. The quartz countertop and stainless steel undermount sink are simply elegant while durable and easy to maintain.
Easily organized
Movable plexiglass panels allow for customized storage, keeping foodstuffs easily organized, separated, and visible. Quality dovetail joints ensure that these custom cabinets will withstand generations of use.
What our Clients are Saying
“The designer, Elizabeth, was amazingly talented. Her knowledge of ADA construction details and resources was impressive. Not only did she succeed at designing bathrooms, toilets, and a kitchen that are fully ADA-compliant, but they are aesthetically beautiful as well as functional and practical. I had never heard of 'flying toe kicks' before, but they make it so easy for me or my husband to sit in a chair while washing dishes or preparing food in the kitchen. I had also never heard of ADA-compliant appliances, but Elizabeth had - and they make life so much easier! Cooking in my new kitchen is now a dream rather than a nightmare. ”

“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. ”
