Kitchen Restoration

Oak Park Victorian Kitchen Transformation

Complete restoration of 1920s oak kitchen cabinets in a historic Victorian home. The project involved stripping decades of paint layers, repairing original joinery, and applying a hand-rubbed oil finish to restore the natural wood beauty.

Custom modifications included adding soft-close hinges, interior organization systems, and period-appropriate hardware. The island was completely rebuilt with modern functionality while maintaining the original aesthetic.
