AfterThe Improvements:Removed 90% of the objects on the

counters. This included all small appliances. What was left served a design purpose. The green canisters, the plant, and green coffee pot accent the space

AfterThe Improvements: Removed the butcher’s block from

the middle of the room to emphasize the size of the room and allow for better traffic

Removed the art from the window to brighten up the counter space and show the large window
