A Seamless Rustic and Modern Blend
This kitchen uses both rustic and modern elements to create an open and inviting space. After exploring different floor plan options, the final design features maximized storage space by using large pantry-style cabinets with a charming rustic cross pattern in the doors, a large island that contains seating and storage including a lowered dining table on the end, a perfect work triangle between the sink, stove, and refrigerator, and a cute window seat. Unique details such as paneled ends on the refrigerator cabinet, cabinet pulls, and ornate table legs enkindle the desired feel of the Kitchen.
“I can honestly say that I wouldn't have the kitchen that I love if it weren't for Carl! His attention to details made a huge difference, he would notice things that I hadn't even noticed. They do great work and they are good people, from Carl and the office staff to all the subs. ”

Project Details
Creating an Open Floor Plan
These homeowners desired to open up their Kitchen to increase storage space and improve the flow of entertaining guests. We removed the wall containing the cooktop, ovens, and fridge to open the Kitchen into the adjacent room. The result contains increased pantry storage, and a large island that better accommodates guests in the Kitchen.
Wood Countertop Accent
The wood countertop at the island distinguishes the island as an elegant piece of furniture, which ties perfectly into the lowered built-in dining table on the end of the island. Selecting this unique stepped countertop edge completes the desired furniture look.
Egg Divots
Mary loves to bake, so she requested that we add egg divots in the marble countertops to keep her eggs from rolling away. We weren't surprised when Mary took over the Great Harvest Bakery in Corvallis!
Built-in Dining Table
The end of the island features a built-in dining table at the lowered typical table height. It features custom table legs painted to match the cabinetry and the same countertop and edge profile.
Utensil Pullout
This Kitchen is full of cabinetry organization pullouts to ensure all the necessary utensils, trays, spices, etc. are in the most functional location for this avid baker!
Baking Center
This Kitchen features a Baking Center cabinet, which contains wide drawers below for storage, and a concealed countertop that is easily accessible and hidden by large bi-folding doors. This pantry contains the baking essentials - mixers, flour, sugar, measuring tools, etc. and features egg divots in the marble countertop to keep her eggs from rolling away!

What our Clients are Saying
“They took our period bathroom and built a gorgeous and accessible shower with great sensitivity to the historic details. They left no mess, and finished every detail perfectly. They adapted to small changes we suggested and made errors right. Tony, especially, was just terrific to work with and the cabinetmaker was a master!”

See the Historic Bathroom Remodel project“The client and I searched for a countertop slab that contained earthy green tones to suit her color palette. We ended up finding Moon Ray Quartzite located in Redmond, Oregon. It was perfect: a natural material, striking vein pattern, and plenty of green coloring. The natural stone is the true highlight of this space!”
Anna Clink, Interior Designer
See the Natural Quartzite Kitchen & Bath project“I love working with the Christianson crews. They are thoroughly professional and incredibly detail-focused. They kept the worksite perfectly clean and tidy, and never skimp. Our screened porch (2015) and remodeled kitchen (2020) are our favorite, most-used, rooms in the house.”
