Located in the beautiful Newport Coast area of Newport Beach, California, this home got a big makeover. The kitchen and the living room’s entertainment center were redesigned to be more stylish, modern, and useful. The goal was to make these spaces brighter, more open, and better suited for everyday life.
Before the update, the kitchen and living room looked old-fashioned. The kitchen had brown wooden cabinets and beige tile floors, making it feel dark and cramped. The countertops and island were cluttered, making it hard to keep things organized. In the living room, the built-in entertainment center wasn’t very eye-catching and didn’t match the rest of the room.

The plan for the renovation was to make everything look fresh and clean, using modern designs and materials. The kitchen cabinets were replaced with white shaker-style cabinets, which made the room look much brighter. The old tile floors were swapped for stylish wood flooring that added warmth to the space.
A major upgrade was the kitchen island. The old, cluttered island was replaced with a custom one made of oak wood and a smooth white countertop. This gave more space for cooking and also worked as a casual dining area with bar stools. The oak wood added a nice, natural touch that balanced the modern look of the kitchen.
The countertops were upgraded to quartz, which is durable and easy to clean. A new farmhouse-style sink with a brass faucet became a beautiful centerpiece. The kitchen also got new stainless steel appliances, including a large fridge, a high-performance stove, and a top-quality dishwasher, making cooking and cleaning much easier.

The range hood was changed to a custom white one with oak details, adding a stylish touch. The backsplash was updated with simple yet elegant tiles, and floating shelves were installed to display small plants, books, or kitchen decor.
The living room’s entertainment center also got a big improvement. The old built-in unit was removed and replaced with a modern design featuring a wall-mounted TV and custom oak cabinets underneath. These cabinets provided lots of storage while keeping the look simple and sleek. Above the TV, floating oak shelves were added for decoration, making the space feel more inviting.
