The kitchen is the only (and I mean, ONLY) room in this house that we haven't touched since purchasing our home 2.5 years ago.

I fell in love with the lay out of the kitchen (we have SO many cabinets and counter space), the fact that cabinets go all the way to the ceiling (no awkward gap or weird soffits!), the recessed lighting, and the paneled dishwasher and fridge. What I didn't love about the kitchen was the color of our cabinets. They were very yellow with an antique glaze and skewed our home very traditional, which just isn't our style. Here is how it looked before:
