Comprehensive Home Remodel in West Lafayette: Kitchen, Living Room, Patio, Stairs, and Garage


Remodeling Need

The homeowners wanted a complete remodel of their West Lafayette home to better suit their needs, enhance functionality, and create a cohesive design throughout key spaces. The kitchen felt outdated and lacked storage, while the living room and patio were underutilized. Additionally, the stairs and garage needed improvements to increase comfort, organization, and usability. Their vision included modern finishes, improved flow, and spaces that seamlessly connect with the rest of the home.


Design Solution

The remodel began with the kitchen, which was transformed into a bright and functional space. The layout was reconfigured to maximize storage and usability, with taller cabinets extending to the ceiling for added space and a clean, modern look. Elegant quartz countertops and a durable tile backsplash created a timeless feel, while a double sink and upgraded faucet enhanced functionality. Electrical updates included new lighting, under-cabinet lights, USB outlets, and quad outlets to meet the demands of modern appliances.

In the living room, the space was refreshed with new luxury vinyl plank flooring to create a seamless flow from the kitchen. Updated paint and trim provided a clean, polished look, while improved lighting made the room more inviting for everyday use and entertaining. The addition of a screened-in patio connected the interior to the outdoors, offering a relaxing space for enjoying fresh air and hosting guests.

The stairs were improved with new finishes and modern touches, creating a smooth transition between floors. In the garage, the design focused on organization and functionality, incorporating new storage solutions to declutter the space and make it more practical for the homeowners.


Result

The result is a cohesive, thoughtfully designed remodel that transforms multiple spaces in the home. The kitchen now serves as the bright and functional centerpiece, while the refreshed living room and patio provide ample space for relaxation and entertainment. The improved stairs and garage add functionality and organization, enhancing the overall flow and usability of the home. The homeowners love their newly updated spaces, which reflect both their personal style and practical needs.
