Inspiration and mood board

Overall, we are looking for simple lines, clean and modern.
We like both mid-century modern and contemporary — don't want fussy details.

​Floors throughout — oak
​
Kitchen needs to be highly functional and maximizing the space, especially the dead corners. 

Kitchen colorway: Gray, oak, white; stainless appliances and hardware

Townhome — visual reference

The good. The bad. And — well — the ugly!
Downstairs (floor 1 of 2)
Kitchen measurements are approximate — for planning and to understand the space only. Kitchen is small — roughly 10'x8'. Needs new cabinets, floor and appliances. ​
