Nestled in a quiet West Seattle neighborhood, this home’s kitchen remodel blends modern functionality with the inviting charm of mid-century design. Natural white oak cabinetry wraps the space in warmth, while a vertical aqua tile backsplash introduces a fresh, calming pop of color that shifts beautifully with the light throughout the day. The expansive island, topped with a sleek, durable surface, serves as both a workspace and a gathering spot—perfect for everything from weeknight dinners to weekend entertaining.

Open shelving provides space for curated displays, while matte black hardware and subtle architectural lines keep the look refined and contemporary. Soft globe pendant lights add a gentle glow, enhancing the room’s relaxed atmosphere. Corner windows flood the space with natural light, connecting the kitchen to the outdoors and creating a bright, airy feel. Every element, from layout to finishes, was chosen to make this kitchen as welcoming as it is practical—a space designed for cooking, connection, and the simple joy of being home.
