$Richard Huff and Erin Davren recently had the kitchen in their Prospect Hill home totally renovated by Neal's Design Remodel. Richard, who owns{ }<a href="http://cincinnatirefined.com/eat-drink/the-bagelry-bagels" target="_blank" title="http://cincinnatirefined.com/eat-drink/the-bagelry-bagels">The Bagelry</a>{ }in Over-the-Rhine, and Erin wanted a larger kitchen to accommodate their love of hosting and entertaining as well as their appreciation for cooking. / Image: Daniel Feldkamp // Published: 11.1.20$

Older, historic homes generally have smaller, tucked away kitchens that weren't designed to be the heart of the home. Over the years, though, parties and gatherings increasingly found guests congregating in the kitchen, placing a greater load on older kitchens. Richard and Erin's home was no different. Neal's had their work cut out for them when they took to redesigning the space. / Image: Daniel Feldkamp // Published: 11.1.20

Renovating their kitchen proved to be a logistical challenge for Neal's as it's located on the second floor of the home. / Image: Daniel Feldkamp // Published: 11.1.20

Neal's redesigned the layout of the kitchen to encompass the entirety of the street-facing wall while wrapping around the other two walls to form a U-shape. Previously, the kitchen was situated in a corner with columns and a peninsula that isolated it from the rest of the house. / Image courtesy of Neal's Design Remodel // Published: 11.1.20

$The windows were left untouched due to existing historic regulations, so the kitchen's redesign worked around them and incorporated each one into the new layout in a meaningful way. According to Neal's{ }<a href="https://info.neals.com/project-tour-kitchen-remodel-in-prospect-hill-otr-cincinnati" target="_blank" title="https://info.neals.com/project-tour-kitchen-remodel-in-prospect-hill-otr-cincinnati">blog</a>, the windows "provide equally-spaced visual breaks that help create distinct zones for the kitchen's various tasks." / Image: Daniel Feldkamp // Published: 11.1.20$

The new kitchen provides many feet of additional counter space the previous didn't have. Richard loves to cook, so the extra space enables him to move around the kitchen without feeling confined. / Image courtesy of Neal's Design Remodel // Published: 11.1.20

The cabinets on either side of the kitchen are tall and provide ample storage. / Image courtesy of Neal's Design Remodel // Published: 11.1.20

The new kitchen meets the aesthetic owners Richard and Erin wanted. As Neal's puts it, the kitchen is, "on the contemporary end of transitional style, marrying a sleek modern look with transitional details." It perfectly blends the old style of the historic home with a new style that's inline with modern trends. / Image courtesy of Neal's Design Remodel // Published: 11.1.20

The green lower cabinetry was chosen because of its ability to feel both modern and traditional simultaneously. / Image courtesy of Neal's Design Remodel // Published: 11.1.20

White upper cabinetry and countertops brighten the kitchen. The pendant lights have glass shades so as not to block sight lines. / Image: Daniel Feldkamp // Published: 11.1.20<p></p>

Electrical lines had to be run between windows, so green tile and floating shelves were incorporated to disguise the bump out. / Image courtesy of Neal's Design Remodel // Published: 11.1.20

A fireplace in the kitchen was redone with a tile hearth that matches the color of the kitchen cabinets. / Image courtesy of Neal's Design Remodel // Published: 11.1.20
