A homeowner in Davidsonville, Maryland, enlisted Annapolis Interiors for a whole-house renovation initially focused on the kitchen. “The kitchen is the hub of the home, so we started our design there, customizing the layout for improved flow and function,” recounts founder and principal Lisa Tullai. “We focused on our client’s desire to entertain large groups of friends and colleagues by expanding the surrounding spaces.”
The seldom-used dining room was transformed into a stylish wine and bourbon tasting area, where guests can enjoy a cocktail near the kitchen while the host cooks. A wall between the family room and sunroom was removed, creating a spacious great room adjacent to the kitchen. Combining and repurposing these areas enhanced the main floor’s utility for a seamless flow.
Tullai emphasized timeless appeal in the kitchen through clean lines and neutral finishes. White cabinetry and a glazed-tile backsplash surround a walnut-topped island, creating a refined focal point. Other finishes echo the owner’s preferences with rich leather, dark wood, and performance fabrics in a colorful palette.
