Small spaces do not have to mean compromised style. There are several ways to open up these rooms to inspiring designs, timeless touches, and in many cases, more space. All you need is the right palette and materials to give tiny rooms a much-needed glow. Such is the story of this kitchen located in a neighborhood of Louisville, Kentucky called Deer Park.
'This area was developed as a "streetcar suburb" of downtown Louisville at the turn of the last century,' says Bethany Adams of Bethany Adams Interiors. 'Most of the homes—like this one—are bungalows built before 1920. The whole home is only 1100 square feet, of which 168 sq ft is this kitchen.'
The kitchen, being the heart of the home was in dire need of a refurbish. Not only did it require a fresh aesthetic but also more circulation area, with proper storage. Bethany transformed this kitchen by merging both design and practicality, and in doing so, created a lovely jewel box space within this modern home. Take a look at the fascinating before/after.
