Before & after: This small LA home's new kitchen now looks so effortlessly chic that the before photos might shock you

A kitchen with sage green cabinetry, open shelving, and island

Nestled in the tree-filled hills of LA's Studio City lies a charming little home that's as tranquil within as the surrounding environment that lies beyond, but that wasn't always the case. Local designer Tamarra Younis of Union of Art Interiors transformed the whimsical mid-Century home into the beautiful sun-soaked space it is now, and it masters a modern bohemian style.

Built in 1955, the cozy two-bedroom two-bathroom home orginally featured a narrow galley kitchen with dark wooden cabinetry and limited storage. With a closed floorplan, stucco interior walls, and a lack of natural lighting, Tamarra was keen to open up the kitchen as much as possible for a bright, airy, and inviting space that the homeowners could entertain friends in.
