Affordable Modern Kitchen Entry: Underdover Modern

Sometimes the hardest part about doing a big remodel is being able to visualize what it is actually going to look like when it’s done. Luckily for Ryan, he happens to be a pro at photoshop, so he was able to whip up a digital version of his kitchen before the hammers ever started swinging.
Our blog is full of pretty extensive info. We had no idea what we’re doing. I’m an artist, love modern design and know Photoshop…and that’s how we pretty much figured it out. We really shopped around for deals on cabinets, faucets, drawer pulls, tile and flooring. Even if a reader of your blog didn’t want to do EVERYthing we did, I think they could find bits and pieces of what we did quite helpful.
Our project extended a bit outside of the kitchen (entry door, stairs, etc) which added to the cost. But we completely gutted it and did every piece brand new.
I’ve been lazy about posting good finished pics of the kitchen. If you guys dig it, let me know and I’ll make sure to get them up. You can see everything on our site though in much more detail.
Approx price: $26,000

I check out your blog pictures. I really like the linoleum on your stairs. Is it sheet or tile? It looks like tile but I can’t always tell. I’d love to know what brand/type it is. I think it would be perfect for a project we are working on.
Hey thanks. It’s actually a sheet of linoleum and not tile. In person it looks pretty convincing too. (I know a lot of those fake linoleum patterns can look kinda fake and cheesy.)
This stuff is made by Armstrong and it’s a new type of linoleum that is actually like 1/8 inch thick and is soft and foamy. It feels really nice underfoot. I had to go to a local floor/tile place to find it. If you ask for the foam backed stuff, they should know what you’re talking about. In this photo you can even grab the serial number off the label. Good luck! http://bp3.blogger.com/_3U_xiyUEiXM/SDrpZdESjMI/AAAAAAAAANc/aHWSB1UAlY8/s1600-h/IMG_0397.JPG
Wow, thank you so much!
Okay, I feel like an idiot because I can’t find the picture of this linoleum staircase. Please tell me where it is. This is just the solution I need for replacing the carpeting on our apartment staircase. I thought I’d just have to deal with having dirty carpeted stairs! Just found you on designsponge and the timing is too perfect! Thanks!
