In every home, there is a gravitational pull toward the kitchen. It’s where early mornings unfold and long evenings wind down, where children perch on barstools working on homework and conversations linger long after the dishes are done.
When it works well, it supports daily life with ease. When it doesn’t, the disconnect is felt every day.
For the owners of this south Tulsa home, the desire was not to move, but to make their longtime home feel better suited to their family lifestyle. They turned to Kirkendall Design for a kitchen refresh that would bring light, color and greater functionality into the center of their home.
“This was one of those great opportunities when a homeowner comes to us with great visuals,” says Julia Kirkendall, principal designer and owner of Kirkendall Design. “They showed us a photo they loved of a kitchen that had a deep blue color in it and said, ‘We love the intentionality of having some color in this room.’ That really opened the door for us.”
