Shiplap Project

The room had good bones and bad decisions: a bulkhead, a soffit and a pantry wall blocking the only south window.

Shiplap Project · Havelock, NC

A 1990s builder kitchen, taken back to the light.

The room had good bones and bad decisions: a bulkhead, a soffit and a pantry wall blocking the only south window.

Soffits out, shiplap up, and the window seat rebuilt at a height an adult can actually sit on. Cabinetry is painted poplar with a pale oak pantry run for warmth.

This is a $35,000 kitchen with the money spent where it shows: light, cabinetry and one very good sink.
