HAM LAKE KITCHEN GETS NEW LIFE FOR BEEKEEPER OWNERS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n\n\n\n

This 20-year-old kitchen was looking tired, much like a 20k marathon runner feels at the three-quarter mark. Oh, and it was also looking very 90\u2019s in the style department, like a tracksuit or bib overalls. But it wasn\u2019t just about getting rid of the laminate countertops or the failing oak cabinets, but about gaining more usable space with the same basic footprint. And of course, a spot to showcase their home-grown honey and maple syrup!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cThey had been wanting to change this since they acquired the property in 2008,\u201d recalls Strandpark Properties. Senior Design\/Build Consultant Jonah Smith, who led the project.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe did it by converting a wasted desk space area into a deep and expanded pantry and by trading out a choke point peninsula for a high-capacity storage island,\u201d explained Smith, now in his 16th year with Strandpark Properties.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Whenever couples engage in the selection phase during the design process, there is always some give and take over style, taste, and design. Sometimes, as in this case, that is expressed in the form of constructive disagreements followed by clear non-defensive distinctions of what each really wants. Sometimes. We do our best to help with that negotiation of course. Remember, every remodel is a custom endeavor, so the challenge is always to balance needs and wants so everyone wins.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cOften people don\u2019t really know what they want and it\u2019s our job to help them figure it out. In this case, they decided on a 2-toned approach with a mix of the darker wood and a colorful island,\u201d explains Smith. \u201cWe even designed a special niche in the island to display their homegrown honey and syrup, which, by the way, are delicious!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n
