Opening this 1970’s kitchen to the formal dining room and family room modernized the floor plan and created a more natural flow better suited to this busy young family. Due to structural and budgetary constraints, not all the walls could be eliminated completely, but even slight modifications alleviated the choke points. By utilizing wide cased openings instead of removing the walls altogether, each space stands on its own as a separate room in keeping with the age and style of the home, while benefiting from improved traffic flow and conversation ability.
