Des Moines Kitchen Renovation

From Fire Restoration to Open-Concept Living 

What began as a fire restoration project became an opportunity to thoughtfully reimagine the heart of this home. Rather than simply rebuilding what was there, the homeowner chose to make meaningful upgrades that would improve both function and flow.

The once closed-off galley kitchen was opened to the adjacent living area, transforming compartmentalized rooms into a bright, connected kitchen, dining, and living space. The new open-concept layout supports gathering, conversation, and everyday movement, creating a home that feels larger, more welcoming, and better aligned with how the family lives today.
