Galley Kitchen & Great Room Remodel in Danville, CA

A large, central fireplace created both a visual and physical barrier between the kitchen and great room, leaving the space feeling dark and disconnected. Their vision was to open up the layout for better flow and natural light, while incorporating a custom built-in media wall in the great room. In the kitchen, they wanted a full remodel using a remove-and-replace approach—modernizing every element without altering the existing footprint.

We replaced the outdated circular island with a sleek, functional design that features seating for three, stylish pendant lighting, and open shelving for visual balance. Removing the kitchen soffit further unified the two rooms, enhanced by a thoughtfully designed lighting plan that brightens the entire space.

Smart storage solutions were also added, including under-counter placement for the microwave and custom appliance garage cabinets—keeping countertops clear and visual clutter to a minimum.

In the great room, we built a striking custom media wall with bold-colored cabinetry that adds personality, boosts storage, and ties the design together with a personalized, polished finish.
