Timber Frame Lake House Kitchen + Bath Remodel

Timber Frame Lake House Custom Kitchen with island by Rocco Design + Build

This summer hideaway in Aurora, NY needed a kitchen update that would make the most of the available space. The beautiful exposed timber frame is a trademark of this home but it presented a challenge: how to renovate without compromising its integrity? In the end, our nuanced construction techniques did the trick and we were left with a final product that satisfied both the homeowner and their architect.

Some of noteworthy favorite details include an eye-catching checkered kitchen island, a custom marble tile arrangement on the floor of the master bath, where we also installed a radiant heating system in the floor, and a stunning vessel sink perched upon a marble countertop.

Philadelphia Row House Kitchen Remodel

The upgraded kitchen and bath of this Philadelphia row home opened up, and therefore lightened up, what used to be a dark, dense, and inefficiently-used space for a growing family.

Danish Kitchen Remodel

When this academic couple moved from their native Denmark to Ithaca in order to teach at Cornell, this design-savvy couple wanted their Scandinavian heritage reflected in the details of their new sleek, modern kitchen. Originally built in the 1940s in the fashionable Cayuga Heights, the kitchen was expanded to create a lighter, open feel. The custom, frameless, European-style cabinetry in a beautiful white oak finish includes fun details like a hidden shelf for the microwave and pantry. Rocco Design + Build put in a new floor, new lighting, soapstone countertops, all new appliances, and a custom glass case that showcases the couple's collection of antique beer steins.

Ivy League Kitchen Remodel

Imbued with historically charming finishes, the kitchen of this early 1900s home required a nuanced renovation so that our clients could stall make a modern statement without compromising the architectural legacy of the space. Rocco Design + Build's team restored the original built-in cabinets and created a pass-through from the kitchen into a newly-designed breakfast nook and library. Eye-catching features include an exotic dark hardwood floor and emerald-green pendants above the marble-topped kitchen island. We also build an adjoining laundry and mudroom so as to keep the kitchen pristine.
