Berkley, Michigan Modern Transitional Kitchen Remodel
This full kitchen remodel in Berkley, Michigan transformed a dated, inefficient space into a modern organic kitchen designed for everyday functionality and timeless appeal. The original kitchen was demolished down to the studs, allowing for a complete redesign that included new electrical, updated plumbing, and a reworked layout to maximize storage and flow.
The new design features a refined mix of slim-line shaker cabinets in a soft neutral finish paired with warm wood flat-front cabinetry for the appliance wall, bringing depth and warmth to the modern layout. The combination of textures and tones creates an inviting balance between clean-lined modern design and natural, organic materials.
To elevate the space, dark stone countertops contrast beautifully against the light cabinetry, while the subway tile backsplash in a soft greige tone adds subtle texture and sophistication. The kitchen is illuminated with modern lighting selections that complement the brushed metal hardware and plumbing fixtures, creating a cohesive look that feels fresh, functional, and livable.
Every detail - from the cabinet hardware and appliance selections to the lighting placement and countertop edges - was thoughtfully designed to enhance both aesthetics and practicality. The result is a bright, welcoming kitchen that blends modern simplicity with organic warmth, perfectly suited to this Berkley home’s character.
This remodel reflects Katrina Himes Design’s commitment to creating custom kitchens that balance beauty and function, transforming everyday spaces into inviting, enduring environments.
