We completed a kitchen renovation in Lincoln, Nebraska, focusing on a modern aesthetic with updated surfaces. Our team installed a new U-shaped cabinetry layout featuring a high-contrast two-tone design. We integrated white shaker-style upper cabinets with bold black base cabinets to transform the room's visual appeal and storage capacity. For the countertops, we selected durable white quartz, which pairs with a clean black subway tile backsplash. We updated the fixtures with a stainless steel sink and a contemporary black faucet set beneath a new glass pendant light. The installation of these materials resulted in a functional, cohesive space that highlights the original hardwood flooring.
