UNION STREET, PORT MOODY

RENOVATION | KITCHEN | PORT MOODY

After months of planning, sourcing, and execution, it's incredibly fulfilling to see the transformation of this kitchen space for a young, growing family. What once was a cramped, outdated, and closed-off room has now blossomed into an open, inviting, and highly functional heart of the home.

By knocking down walls and optimizing the layout, we were able to significantly enlarge the space, inviting not only more room but also more light. The focal point—a generously sized island—is perfect for family gatherings, after-school snacks, or even casual weekday dinners. We wanted the kitchen to be not just beautiful, but also timeless. To achieve that, we mixed natural wood grain textures in the flooring and cabinetry with contemporary elements. The flutter integrated hood fan is not just efficient but adds a touch of modern aesthetic appeal. Matte white plumbing fixtures blend seamlessly, elevating the overall design without overpowering it.

What really brings warmth to the space are the organic touches— the textured backsplash mimicking natural patterns and durable quartz countertops that can withstand the rigors of family life. Splashes of warm leathers and soft whites tie everything together, creating a kitchen that's not just designed for today, but will also grow and adapt with this family for years to come.

We were referred to Jamie Banfield and his team by our general contractor for a major kitchen renovation and had an excellent experience from start to finish. Jamie and his team were able to guide us through the design process and bring a concept to a reality by reviewing what we wanted to achieve with the space we had. The Jamie Banfield Design Inc. team also helped us with design options for the details of the space (colour, types of cabinetry, countertops, etc.). They worked seamlessly with our contractor and with us. We were really happy with our experience; we would definitely work with Jamie Banfield and his team again, and wouldn't hesitate to refer their services to our friends.
