The Vision
The family approached Armada Design & Build with a vision for remodeling the home but felt uncertain about where to begin. After exploring options with other builders, they struggled to find the clear direction needed to turn ideas into a cohesive plan. We helped create a goal of designing a modern, functional space that retained warmth and comfort for everyday life.
We started with a thorough consultation to understand preferences and priorities. They envisioned a sleek and contemporary design, and we worked to ensure the home would remain practical and inviting. By breaking the project into manageable steps, we guided decisions for layout, materials, and finishes, ensuring the vision took shape one detail at a time. The cabinetry became the cornerstone of the design. We recommended simple, frameless cabinets with contrasting tones to maintain a modern yet warm aesthetic. The combination of light and dark finishes provided visual interest while keeping the overall design cohesive. These cabinets not only offered a sleek, minimal look but also provided ample storage to meet everyday needs.
For countertops, we suggested a durable yet elegant material with a polished surface to enhance the kitchen’s refined appearance while ensuring practicality for daily use. The subtle tones of the countertops paired beautifully with the cabinetry, creating a seamless flow throughout the space. The flooring selection was critical in grounding the design. We recommended natural hardwood for its timeless appeal and ability to add warmth to the home. Wide planks were chosen to complement the modern elements, while the natural grain brought texture and depth to the overall design. This flooring tied together the open-concept spaces, creating a cohesive look throughout the main living areas.
During the construction process, we maintained open communication and provided regular updates to ensure involvement in every stage. We carefully managed timelines and worked collaboratively to address any concerns, ensuring expectations were met. In addition to the aesthetic upgrades, we incorporated functional enhancements like expanded storage solutions and improved lighting to make the home more practical. Key features like strategically placed windows and doors allowed natural light to flood the space, further emphasizing the modern, open design.
The final result was a home that perfectly reflected the style and needs of the project—a harmonious blend of sleek, modern finishes and natural warmth. The transformation not only fulfilled the initial vision but also elevated functionality, providing a space that was as practical as it was beautiful. With our expertise and guidance, the family turned uncertainty into a stunning and functional remodel that exceeded expectations.


Our Process
The kitchen remodel was designed with a focus on modern functionality and aesthetics, using high-quality materials and finishes. Golden Home Shaker cabinets in white and gray were chosen for their clean, minimalist look and ample storage. The white upper cabinets brightened the space, while the gray lower cabinets added contrast and depth, giving the kitchen a sleek yet welcoming feel.
For the countertops, we installed MSI Alabaster White Quartz. This durable, elegant material not only added a polished finish but also provided a resilient surface, ideal for daily use. The quartz complemented the cabinetry, creating a seamless, modern look.
The sink area was anchored by a Kohler Whitehaven farmhouse sink. Its apron-front design brought a timeless, classic touch, while the cast iron construction ensured durability. Paired with the Delta Trinsic pull-down faucet with touch activation, the sink setup offered both practicality and convenience. The faucet’s magnetic docking spray head enhanced functionality, making kitchen tasks easier and more efficient. For the flooring, West Valley Hardwood European Oak was chosen, bringing warmth and texture to the overall design. The wide-plank oak provided a natural contrast to the modern elements, creating a balance between sleek surfaces and rustic charm. This kitchen remodel perfectly blends contemporary style with functional design, using premium brands like MSI, Kohler, Delta, and West Valley Hardwood to ensure the space is as beautiful as it is practical for daily living.
