BEFORE & AFTER
Entertaining From Start to Finish
IT STARTED WITH WINE. Th e clients had found designer Nicole White,
CEO and principal designer at Miami, Fla.-based Nicole White Designs
Interiors, on social media, and the fi rst time she visited their home, they greeted
her with a glass of red. Th e gesture set the tone for an amicable relationship, and
throughout the project, which was a complete renovation with a major unhappy
surprise, the clients stayed positive and trusted White's recommendations.
Th e homeowners had lived in their 2,500-sq.-ft. stucco ranch for about
10 years before deciding to renovate. Th ey enjoyed entertaining friends, but
the house wasn't appealing enough to do that. With its sunken living room,
builder-grade fi nishes and dysfunctional kitchen and bathroom, there were
no features worth saving, so White gutted it and started fresh.
KICKING IT OFF IN THE KITCHEN
White said the former kitchen made no sense and that the clients were
open to doing whatever was necessary. Th e team removed two walls that
had separated the kitchen from the dining room and living room. Once
they got into the remaining walls, they discovered that the cast-iron pipes
had rotted and needed to be replaced, adding $20,000 to the budget.
" I had gotten close to these clients, and I knew it was going to be a hit
for them, " said White. " But we had no choice. "

ABOVE Designer Nicole White
had originally specifi ed two
light fi xtures, but the large
entertaining island with a
quartz countertop required a
third. In black and brass, the
pendants bring a timeless
glam to the kitchen without
competing with the standout
feature of the space - the
dramatic backsplash.
RIGHT The former closed-off
kitchen off ered little in the
way of entertaining space
and even less in style and
functionality. The designer
gutted it, only to fi nd the
plumbing would need to
be replaced throughout the
home.
During a whole-house
renovation, a designer
overcomes challenges
and installs fun
