Baltimore City Kitchen Renovation

This charming but shabby kitchen in a century-old house in Baltimore City was full of character but lacked functionality. Next to it was a full pantry that needed renovation, and the client asked that a new powder room be carved out of the existing space while leaving as much storage area as possible. The design for this renovation was focused on retaining and enhancing the architectural interest of the original kitchen and improving its layout. The only redeemable feature of the original pantry was its large window, so when the new powder room was added, a sliding glass door — repurposed from an old door found in the basement — was used to bring daylight into the new pantry space. The new kitchen is a delightful blend of new and old.
