Excerpt: Bright and Beautiful
Homeowners came to Gemmi Construction, Inc. with a desire to create additional bedrooms and expand the kitchen in their beautiful residence. After consulting with John Gemmi, CR, CKBR, owner of the fullservice, design build residential remodeling company, construction began on the addition that would turn the homeowners’ dream into reality.
A vital addition
As a large family that loves to entertain, the homeowners’ existing kitchen proved too dark, cramped and uninviting. Gemmi Construction, Inc. was called in to turn the space into a brighter, aesthetically pleasing area that offered better function and flow.
In order to transform the environment into an inviting room, an addition was vital as well as addressing awkward architectural elements. At the rear of the house, a hardly used dark corner turned into the ideal location for the kitchen expansion, and an existing sunroom became the inspiration for both the expanded kitchen and outdoor covered terrace. “We decided to remove most of the interior walls and push out the back of the home to create a very large kitchen and gathering area for the family,” says Gemmi.
