Inside the Transformation
When this couple relocated from New York City to Austin, they knew they wanted to make their new house feel like home before moving in—especially with a recent baby in tow. The kitchen and living spaces were dated and didn’t reflect the welcoming, family-friendly environment they envisioned.
After interviewing several contractors, the couple chose Catalyst Construction. The decision came down to trust: while others promised that a key wall could be removed to open the floor plan, our team carefully explained why this wasn’t possible due to critical plumbing hidden inside. Removing it would have caused major complications and costly overruns later. This level of honesty and expertise gave the homeowners confidence that we were the right fit.
A Full Home Remodel for a Family Relocating to Austin, TX
Design was focused on creating a kitchen that felt timeless yet functional. Classic white cabinetry paired with warm wood accents strikes the perfect balance of fresh and inviting. Brass hardware and fixtures bring in an elegant touch, while natural stone countertops and full-height backsplashes add both durability and beauty. A custom wood island anchors the space, providing storage and a central gathering spot for the family.
Statement lighting over the island and a sleek, professional-grade range make the kitchen as stylish as it is practical. A built-in coffee station and thoughtfully placed open shelving add daily convenience while giving the room character.
For this family, the remodel wasn’t just about finishes—it was about starting a new chapter of their lives in Austin with a space designed to grow with them. By listening, problem-solving, and guiding them away from potential pitfalls, we delivered a kitchen that blends trust, comfort, and timeless design.
Now, with their baby in tow, they can enjoy a home that truly supports the way they live.
