Jackson Design and Remodeling Wins 2012 Kitchen of the Year Honor from Ranch & Coast Magazine

August 31st, 2012
Posted in Awards and Contests, Design and Build, Kitchens | Comments Off

We are happy to announce that a kitchen designed by Jackson Design and Remodeling has been awarded Kitchen of the Year by Ranch & Coast magazine. A couple who love to entertain and are enthusiastic members of their local wine club wanted their kitchen to be a central gathering point in their home – a sophisticated, yet unpretentious space for welcoming fellow oenophiles. After visiting an open house in their neighborhood showcasing a whole home remodel by Jackson Design and Remodeling, this couple was inspired to work with us for their kitchen remodeling project.

The most challenging aspect of this remodel was the room’s very unusual configuration and positioning. Our professional design team developed not just cosmetic changes, but a dramatically different layout and perspective. The new kitchen design takes full advantage of the home’s spectacular views while also embracing the clients’ lifestyle by creating an open floor plan with welcoming bar island seating. This brilliantly re-imagined new space is now an appealing central gathering place where the homeowners welcome guests and fellow wine enthusiasts in comfort and style.
