36 Kitchen Remodeling Before and Afters That Only Look Like a Million Bucks

Green With Envy

Black and Tan Homes went in with their whole heart on this juicy green backsplash and we are living for it! It adds such depth and richness in addition to being a visual showstopper. Paired with gold brass fixtures, we’re getting some Gatsby vibes, for sure.

Sledgehammer

We hate to see storage go, but getting rid of the awkward pantry at the end of the counter and turning it into a cozy seating area is genius. With the new upper and lower cabinets in place, it looks like Grace Design didn’t sacrifice a bit of storage. And can we talk about those sapphire barstools?

Taylor Swift’s Dream Kitchen

Okay, so we have no way of knowing what Taylor’s dream kitchen looks like, but if you had to close your eyes and take a guess, this cottagecore kitchen is probably what you’d visualize. Compact doesn’t have to mean cramped. Erin, can you, um, send us Taylor’s number and also help us renovate our space?

Layout Is Key

If it feels like Falisha K Patel‘s isn’t even the same kitchen, that’s because it isn’t! By re-imagining the space to be more functional — and also way more aesthetically pleasing — this kitchen went from squared-off to spacious. By closing up a doorway and creating a new entry into the kitchen, this room feels like a heartbeat, not an afterthought. Plus, getting rid of the microwave and installing a wood-covered range hood is always a good idea.
