The Highland Park kitchen and laundry renovation by DorianBahr masterfully balances mid-century modern design with today’s innovations, creating a space that is both elegant and highly functional. Thoughtful details such as walnut veneer cabinetry, black pewter appliances and acorn-shaped pendants preserve the warmth and character of the 1950s while incorporating modern conveniences like LED lighting and a pop-up downdraft system. Every design decision was made to respect the home’s historic charm while ensuring the space met contemporary needs for efficiency and comfort.
This project, known as The Lacey Project, has received high recognition, including a Best of 2024 Design Journal Award and the ADEX Director’s Choice Platinum Award, underscoring its excellence in craftsmanship and innovation. By seamlessly blending vintage appeal with advanced technology, the renovation delivers a timeless environment that feels both authentic and forward-thinking. More than just a remodel, it stands as a testament to DorianBahr’s commitment to design precision, historical appreciation and modern functionality.
