Before/After: Lake Street Kitchen Reno





San Francisco-based architect Cass Calder Smith completed this renovation last year on Lake Street in the Richmond district of San Francisco. His clients, who enjoy entertaining at home, wanted a kitchen where friends could gather while they cooked.

Smith removed the walls separating the kitchen and dining area, transforming it into an open, fluid space. To brighten the room, he built a skylight and installed white Oak cabinets and warm, Walnut floors. CaesarStone countertops and silver barstools by Harry Bertoia give the space a modern feel.

    I like the openness and big windows for natural lighting. However it is boring, needs a bright color to give it pizazz which would take away the bareness.
