JWT Associates is responsible for the remodel of a 1930s bungalow style in Westwood, a neighborhood in Los Angeles County, California. They began this project by relocating the kitchen to the former dining room, and then made a few small adjustments to the floor plan, transforming the home’s flow. The finished result is an open and airy layout with stylish details. Continue below to see the tour…

Above: The island is reclaimed wood with a Caesarstone counter. The original wood floors were sanded down, then taped off with squares, and applied a coat of white paint — “Right White” from Restoration Hardware. Next, the paint was buffed to achieve an aged look, then sealed.
