Westover Colorful Contemporary Condo

The client of this Northwest Portland Condo needed a solution for her ‘90’s-style dark and
dated kitchen and cave-like entryway.

Pale white oak and white quartz provide contrast against the black stainless range and cobalt blue built-ins.

Built-ins with custom inserts provide innovative storage solutions.

Modern finishes and color pop in the narrow kitchen.

A dark stainless workstation sink provides additional prep space and matches the range.

A place for everything and everything in its place. Taking the time to think through how a drawer will be organized can help you utilize space to the maximum potential.

With so many different recycling options available, it's important to find space-saving solutions. This four-compartment pullout is the perfect size for one person.

Custom wrapped faux shagreen drawers and glass bar area with recessed strip lighting.

Cubbies built in to an unutilized space at the base of the stairs is a great place to store cookbooks and wine. The coat closed utilizes touch-latch hardware and concealed hinges that disappears into the wall when closed.

Floor to ceiling feature wall and custom sofa cushions showcase the client's love of color.

Colorful artwork unifies the various colors used throughout the condo.

An open sightline from the living area through to the kitchen exhibits how color can provide separation of space within an open floorplan.

Custom built-ins provide additional display space, while the lime green fireplace chimney is an unexpected choice.

Art, rugs, and cushions utilize a similar color palette, providing cohesiveness and unifying the rest of the space.

In an otherwise neutral space, three pieces of art in the client's favorite colors stand out agains the dark grey walls. A few other decorative elements mirror the colors in the art.

“I really had a great time working with C Change Design during a major remodeling project in my condo. They took my wish list for the project and made everything happen. Chelly is a consistently clear communicator who excels at follow-through. She handled the hundreds of details that make or break a project and coordinated with my contractor and other vendors to ensure I got the best possible outcome. I have recommended C Change Design to a friend who lives in the same condominium and now her project is moving forward in the same well-organized fashion. I can’t say enough about their professionalism and creativity!”

For this project, we removed walls to open up the kitchen and dining rooms, gaining much-needed space. The more welcoming and open design added more light throughout the entire condo, allowing the client to showcase her eclectic collection of artwork and love of bold color schemes. Built-in storage was added We also added much needed storage with the addition of a custom leather-covered bar area which was “found” space from an adjacent closet, adding built-in storage. The custom cabinetry incorporated many innovative accessories to maximize their use.
