Kristen Hutchins


I have posted this office from Kristen Hutchins before. It is completely chic to perfection. Well, I recently came across Raenovate, a blog that posts before & afters that featured the rest of this home. I am smitten to say the least and am quite impressed with the transformation. And by impressed I mean let me just pick up my jaw that fell to the floor. Before & After...









*to see more of this homes before & after go, here.

Wow. That's really impressive. Such vision.

Also, side note, I actually like the hutch in the corner of the before picture by the patio. Though I wouldn't put it right there.

Well this just makes my heart sing! I love this home! I especially love that the before and after aren't totally different - the home's original style wasn't compromised in the renovation and that the colors are so muted and calming. To be a guest here would just be marvelous!

Thanks for sharing. I love that the fact the house looks so good without making architectural changes. No knocking out walls and adding windows, just great design.

Heather said...

Very impressive. It looks so much lighter and NICER. The house looked very drab and uninviting before, and now it looks ready for me to move in!

a great floor and some white paint go a long way to bring some light and life to a space!

Love these, especially the last pic. I cannot get enough grasscloth - I think it's a sign that I should pull the trigger and put it on one of my walls!
