Project Overview
Blending Classic Elegance with Modern Functionality
This stunning kitchen remodel blends timeless elegance with modern functionality through custom white cabinetry, luxurious gold accents, and marble-inspired surfaces. A dramatic dark statement range hood and matching island columns create beautiful contrast, while the oversized island with integrated sink anchors the open-concept layout for cooking and entertaining.
Designed to maximize both style and storage, the space seamlessly pairs high-end professional appliances with bespoke millwork. Hidden refrigerator panels keep the visual flow clean and uninterrupted, while warm hardwood floors bring natural character to the bright design. The result is a highly practical, welcoming hub that effortlessly elevates everyday living.

About The Neighborhood
Located in a sought-after Bentonville neighborhood, this spacious residence benefits from expansive architecture and light-filled layouts. Upgrading the kitchen allowed the home’s interior design to match the prestige and high standards of the surrounding community.
The Challenge
Balancing Open Space with Distinct Character
- Dated cabinetry with limited and inefficient storage capacity.
- Oversized appliances disrupting the visual design cohesion.
- Lack of focal architectural points or contrast elements.
- Closed-off layout that restricted natural entertaining flow.
The original space lacked a clear design direction and struggled to connect visually with the surrounding living areas. The homeowners wanted a bright, luxurious look that felt warm and cohesive rather than clinical or stark.
BEFORE:
“Mary helped me design and select the materials to replace a tub shower combination with a walk-in tile shower. The completed shower came out just as I envisioned it and I am extremely satisfied. I would certainly make DreamMaker the first stop in any future remodeling I may desire.”

Crafting a High-Contrast Culinary Haven
We redesigned the kitchen around a bold, contrasting color scheme that highlights custom craftsman details. By integrating panel-ready appliances and floor-to-ceiling cabinetry, we dramatically increased storage while maintaining a sleek, uncluttered view from the adjacent rooms. The central island and dark architectural pillars now frame the space beautifully, establishing a seamless hub for meal prep and social gatherings.
Key Improvements included:
- Custom white shaker cabinetry with soft-close storage.
- Dramatic dark wood statement range hood cover.
- Oversized blue kitchen island with integrated prep sink.
- Panel-ready hidden refrigerator seamlessly built into millwork.
- Elegant herringbone marble-inspired tile backsplash.
- Warm gold hardware and modern pendant lighting.
- Professional-grade Wolf gas range with custom hood.
