Wisconsin-based interior designer Emily Winters of Peabody’s Interiors was tasked with an all-too-classic mission: An outdated kitchen from the late 1990s to early 2000s was in need of a modern makeover — and a much more functional layout.“It was a sea of natural maple cabinetry with sponge-painted walls and Corian countertops,” Winters says of the original kitchen.

It's an homage to Jackson Pollock and Lee Krasner.

The chunky wood details on the vanity give it a whole new look.

“It’s not just pretty — it feels soulful,” the DIYer says.

It made me totally rethink white cabinetry.

The DIYer didn’t like the brown cabinets at first.

They look so much better after the makeover.

When the apartment owners moved in, they immediately got rid of the lime green walls.

Greens and grays mesh perfectly.

You probably have the culprit in your bathroom right now.

The renter didn't let her lease stop her from personalizing the kitchen.

It’s dark, Parisian-inspired, and dreamy.

Here’s to maximizing vertical space.
