Historic Takoma Park Expansion

Historic Takoma Park Expansion

Summary

Our clients fell in love with this charming 1900s Takoma Park home but desired a modern kitchen. The existing kitchen was outdated and lacked functionality. To expand the space, we carefully designed a modest addition that seamlessly integrated with the home's historic character. Collaborating with the local historic review board ensured the project aligned with the neighborhood's architectural heritage.

The clients wanted to expand the kitchen with a small addition on the rear of the home. The kitchen renovation focused on creating an efficient and inviting space. We optimized the layout to accommodate the homeowners' cooking and entertaining needs. The addition provided valuable extra square footage, enhancing both kitchen and overall home functionality. Careful attention was paid to maintaining the home's original footprint while incorporating modern design elements. We worked with the city of Takoma Park’s Historic Review Board to ensure the addition did not disrupt the historic structure.

The kitchen's design strikes the client’s desired balance between old and new. We preserved the home's character by incorporating original woodwork and incorporating traditional elements like brass fixtures and subway tile. However, the space also boasts contemporary touches, such as a sleek island and modern appliances. The result is a kitchen that is both stylish and functional.
