Bright, white remodeled kitchen with cabinets from floor to ceiling.

Refreshed coastal galley kitchen with a sun tunnel

March 05, 2025 in Interiors

This kitchen had high ceilings and big windows, but the cabinets and flooring didn’t represent that well. They were dated and didn’t match the rest of the first floor, which was updated with a blue coastal theme.

Belynda Chen Interiors helped the homeowners refresh their kitchen from top to bottom by extending the cabinets to the ceiling, and changing the cabinets and floors. As a final touch, a sun tunnel was installed in the ceiling. This allows a hint of sunlight to stream in from above, like a mini skylight.

This kitchenette was designed with a specific person in mind for convenience and safety.

It’s great for people who have reduced mobility, but everyone can make use of it especially at night. No need to walk downstairs to get water or a snack ☺
This bathroom is a special one because it was designed by @creativedesigntherapy to be more accessible. I loved photographing it and I hope to see more inclusive design like this.

There are many ways to create a space that is inclusive so here are a

Two features that stand out in this primary bathroom:
1. The beautiful tile that extends outside of the shower

How I see a space as an interior photographer:

Photo 1 - Capture the corner. Corners can be interesting because of how the walls guide your eye.

Photo 3 and 4 - Full view of the room
