Saint-Philippe
In this Saint-Philippe home, built approximately 15 years ago, the original builder-grade kitchen no longer met the homeowners’ needs. A main-floor renovation offered the opportunity to rethink the layout and create a more spacious, ergonomic, and welcoming kitchen, particularly suited to a family that loves entertaining. A new wall behind the staircase provides additional cabinetry, while an expansive central island with an integrated sink now serves as the heart of the space.
The design features a soft, light colour palette, pairing Shell-coloured Similaque cabinetry with delicate mini-shaker detailing and warm Drupe Ambré wood-look accents. Dekton Rem countertops and backsplash bring a refined finish, while generous built-in storage, automatically illuminated drawers and a glass display cabinet add both practicality and character. New hardwood flooring creates a seamless transition throughout the main floor, enhancing the home’s high ceilings and spacious proportions.
