Intent on maintaining its mid-century modern character, they began a full-home remodeling journey for their longtime family home in <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/suburb\/park-ridge\">Park Ridge, IL<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cOver the years they spent their money on the kids and chose not to focus on the house,\u201d Normandy Designer <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/team\/bill-peterson\">Bill Peterson<\/a> says. \u201cThey realized it was time to not only address issues such as loose grout in the bathrooms and outdated appliances in the kitchen, but also to make some layout changes to increase space throughout the home with <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/aging-in-place-remodels-are-on-the-rise-and-can-be-stylish-too\">aging-in-place<\/a> in mind.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The couple loved their house, which had been home for 35 years, so wanted to give the original style a more refined boost. \u201cIf you look at the before and after, the color vibe throughout is still natural wood, tile accents and blue shades \u2013 but more elevated,\u201d Bill says. \u201cThe goal was a warm feeling with a handful of mid-century elements. They wanted each material selection to express itself.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-61326\" src=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BEFORE-RANGE-20221014_190917313_iOS.jpg\" alt=\"&quot;Before&quot; kitchen photo showing birch cabinets, white vintage rangetop, blue and white square backsplash, white fridge to the left\" width=\"334\" height=\"445\" srcset=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BEFORE-RANGE-20221014_190917313_iOS.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BEFORE-RANGE-20221014_190917313_iOS-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BEFORE-RANGE-20221014_190917313_iOS-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/BEFORE-RANGE-20221014_190917313_iOS-1152x1536.jpg 1152w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 334px) 100vw, 334px\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-61329\" src=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20241101_200134765_iOS-1.jpg\" alt=\"Maple cabinets in kitchen with herringbone blue green backsplash, white countertops, peninsula to left, table to right, stainless steel range, hood and above counter microwave along cabinetry wall\" width=\"334\" height=\"445\" srcset=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20241101_200134765_iOS-1.jpg 1440w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20241101_200134765_iOS-1-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20241101_200134765_iOS-1-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/20241101_200134765_iOS-1-1152x1536.jpg 1152w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 334px) 100vw, 334px\" \/>The new kitchen cabinets are maple, replacing the original birch ones built on-site. \u201cThey wanted the wood to pop without too much grain pattern,\u201d Bill says. \u201cAnd the <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/herringbone-tile-ideas\">herringbone<\/a> backsplash pays tribute to their former backsplash but offers more sophisticated continuity.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the kitchen, the main goal was to create more storage space. \u201cEverything was a little tight, so we relocated the fridge and range for better flow,\u201d Bill says. \u201cWe also created a peninsula which eliminated the need for a larger kitchen table and provides the person preparing meals with a direct sight line to the dining and living rooms for better connection.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In the two first-floor bathrooms, the floor plans shifted, essentially swapping the full bath and powder room. \u201cThe back bathroom used to be the powder room. We took out a section of wall and built a new wall,\u201d Bill says. \u201cThis made more sense for the front bath to be the guest\/powder bath and to give more space and function to the back bathroom for family use.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>For the <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/create-movement-and-interest-with-geometric-tile\">tile<\/a> in the new full bath, they chose a geometric black-and-white pattern above the sink. And they used a dusty blue picket-shaped tile on the wall in the new powder room that gives an updated take on mid-century modern. A laundry chute was upgraded with new wood trim. And a <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/what-are-transom-windows\">transom window<\/a> was added to bring in more natural light to the powder bath.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-61378\" src=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/AFTER-SOFFIT-20241101_200234937_iOS-2.jpg\" alt=\"Shallow soffit and built-in bookcase with floating shelves\" width=\"334\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/AFTER-SOFFIT-20241101_200234937_iOS-2.jpg 1186w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/AFTER-SOFFIT-20241101_200234937_iOS-2-185x300.jpg 185w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/AFTER-SOFFIT-20241101_200234937_iOS-2-633x1024.jpg 633w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/AFTER-SOFFIT-20241101_200234937_iOS-2-768x1243.jpg 768w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/AFTER-SOFFIT-20241101_200234937_iOS-2-949x1536.jpg 949w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 334px) 100vw, 334px\" \/><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright wp-image-61342\" src=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/CLIENTS-BATHROOM-20241101_195917650_iOS.jpg\" alt=\"Wide shot of powder room with maple cabinetry, floating shelves, black rhomboid tile, reflection of homeowners in mirror\" width=\"346\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/CLIENTS-BATHROOM-20241101_195917650_iOS.jpg 1229w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/CLIENTS-BATHROOM-20241101_195917650_iOS-192x300.jpg 192w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/CLIENTS-BATHROOM-20241101_195917650_iOS-655x1024.jpg 655w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/CLIENTS-BATHROOM-20241101_195917650_iOS-768x1200.jpg 768w, https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/01\/CLIENTS-BATHROOM-20241101_195917650_iOS-983x1536.jpg 983w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 346px) 100vw, 346px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>In the living and dining area, a 32-inch-wide <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/blog\/keeping-the-kitchen-soffit\">soffit<\/a> was created as a design element to mask a visual shift in the ceiling; built-in shelving on either end anchor this feature. The flooring from the dining room to the living room was extended by two feet \u2013 and the half walls and decorative slats near the entryway were removed to open the layout even more.<\/p>\n<p>Since they hadn\u2019t changed their home in so long, the collaborative process in this design process was key. \u201cWe would discuss a floor plan, then I\u2019d come back with a rendering, and then we\u2019d sit down and really discuss the pros and cons,\u201d Bill says. \u201cAnd they ended up with a whole new home that\u2019s still familiar and that they love.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re contemplating reimagining the layout of your home, <a href=\"https:\/\/normandyremodeling.com\/contact-us\">set up a time to talk with Bill<\/a> about your vision.
