New Orleans-Inspired Kitchen Remodel in Lake Forest

At Sea Pointe Design & Remodel, we know that every remodeling project is unique. That’s because we all have different ideas, styles, personality types, and design preferences. 

That’s also what makes our job especially rewarding – we get to combine our design expertise, master craftsmanship, and top quality materials with a customer’s unique vision for a particular space. The end result is a functional and aesthetically pleasing masterpiece that the homeowner will be happy with for years to come. 

This kitchen remodel in Lake Forest is a perfect example. Although they live in California, the homeowners wanted to pay homage to one of their favorite places, New Orleans. Thus, the idea for a New Orleans-inspired kitchen design was born.

Throughout the kitchen and its adjacent spaces, you’ll notice brickwork that’s reminiscent of the New Orleans French Quarter … 

• A dry bar tucked inside a little nook has a beautiful brick backdrop.
• The oven and range area is surrounded by a brick outline, with a darker contrasting brick accent wall behind it.
• And last, but not least, a matching brick fireplace sits just beyond the kitchen cabinets while a built-in bench completes a cozy sitting area there.

A French scroll design graces the outside of the kitchen sink while a Tree of Life copper design is a beautiful accent to the brick wall behind the range top. Next to the range, a built-in pantry is enclosed with rustic doors, further adding to the room’s New Orleans vibe. Inside the pantry, pull-out drawers give plenty of storage space for food goods and small kitchen items.

In the center of the kitchen, a long island covered with a honed quartz countertop is a great workspace for meal prep or other kitchen tasks. It also provides a seating area for two and ample storage options underneath. The darker island cabinets pair perfectly with the GemCore flooring and rustic ceiling inset. But, white cabinets with under lighting line the kitchen walls, giving a bold contrast and matching the white of the island countertop.
