Award-Winning Kitchen
Makeover
|
Rizek Design
& Remodeling
, a very well-renowned contactor in Albuquerque,
created this fantastic kitchen remodel in 2010. Company owner Tim Rizek
called on the power of Envision 3D to render the design in richly
detailed 3D and, as can be seen below, the rendering is remarkably
realistic. The design
received the Grand Award from the Albuquerque Remodeler Council, as
highlighted in its 2010 Remodelers Council Guide to Home
Remodeling. Says
the feature article:
"The homeowners wanted more; more natural light, more space,
more storage and more excitement. The new
layout had to incorporate a new office niche, natural and artificial
light, improved traffic flow, formal and informal dining areas and
most of all storage."

Fantastic Views, Totally Gutted
Interior Now What?
|
When this couple came to Envision 3D, the capable
DIYer husband had already demolished the dated former kitchen,
dining, and living room of their recently purchased home down to the
insulation.
However, while the couple was in love with the
home's amazing views and knew it had potential, they found
themselves unable to visualize what the space’s new design should
look like, especially when it came to using what looked like limited
square footage.
Envision 3D went to work and created a beautiful new,
contemporary kitchen that embraces the adjoining dining and living
areas. Pre-selected
granite, paint, cabinetry colors and wood flooring selections were
all incorporated, which gave the couple confidence in how everything
would look together.
They loved the design immediately and are now working with us
to refine the cabinetry layout and incorporate their actual
furnishings.

This client came to Envision 3D to take their initial
design to the next level. The 2,800 sq ft project includes numerous
rooms with unique design details. These beautiful photo-realistic renderings provide a vivid
appreciation of the ultimate look and feel of thier
kitchen. Coupled with a detailed floor plan (also created by
Envision 3D), they are already greatly aiding the client in the
contractor bid process. Other images from this home can be seen in

A Fresh New Look From "Outside the
Box"
|
The main objective for the
remodel project were to create functional, attractive,
and appropriate designs for a new kitchen, great
room/dining room, and foyer. Designs emphasized complementing the
home's existing ranch-style home style. Perhaps what was most
interesting about this project as that the clients had already
received 2 or 3 designs from other designers. Envision 3D was
able to provide a fresh new look from outside the (design) box, and
the clients loved it!

An Outdated Kitchen Expanded and
Transformed
|
The kitchen was completely transformed,
starting with an expansion of its width by five feet. The small bay window was
replaced by a much larger version with side lights,so as to bring in
significantly more light.
This larger, brighter space houses a well-appointed kitchen
with an ample pantry, lots of additional counter space and storage,
an efficient work triangle, and a large work-space island with
plenty of storage of its own.
The island also features an eat-in/watch-the-chef counter
with stools at one end.
The new honey-stained Alder cabinetry features recessed-frame
drawer and door faces. Taking advantage of an
HVAC redesign and the removal of overhead ductwork, the cabinetry
now reaches the higher (formerly dropped) ceiling. The doorway between the
Kitchen and the Dining Room is wider and open to the ceiling (pocket
door removed). The
existing tile is replaced with engineered wood in a medium-dark
stain, as is used in the the adjacent Dining and Family
Room/Informal Dining rooms. The room is illuminated
in carefully spaced and placed, 6-inch recessed lights,
under-cabinet puck lights, three traditional pendants over the
island, and a coordinating traditional flush dome ceiling light over
the sink.

A New Kitchen
for a Growing Family |
During the bidding process,
American Design & Remodeling (ADR) of Albuquerque turned their
design over to Envision 3D to bring it to life in fully detailed 3D.
ADR won the contract.
Prior to construction, the homeowner was able to provide
feedback so that the space could be optimized for the growing
family's daily life.
They were also able to make very specific design decisions
about materials and cabinet design. In the end, ADR's client was
delighted with the results.
