"All cooks - whether they're professional chefs or prolific leftover reheaters - can appreciate a functional, stylish kitchen renovation. For someone like Marcella DiLonardo (@modestmarce), an author, recipe developer, content creator, and founder of the all-things-culinary blog Modest Marce, a kitchen transformation was beneficial for both aesthetic reasons and business purposes. "I wanted a better kitchen designed for filming, more counter space, and more pantry space," Marcella shares."
""[Meaghan] went above and beyond to ensure I had a kitchen that functioned for both living and work," Marcella explains. "Switching from a tiny island to a large peninsula was her ingenious idea and it might just be my favorite part of the new design." The peninsula is the perfect space for DiLonardo to test out new recipes (she calls it "a dream!"). But other elements benefit her functionally, too, like the wraparound storage around the fridge."
Marcella DiLonardo redesigned her kitchen to improve filming capabilities, add counter space, and create pantry storage suited to recipe development. She aimed for a Danish-inspired look with mid-century modern touches and chose Nordiska Kök for a European vibe with natural wood tones and bold marble. Interior designer Meaghan Jones created a new layout that replaced a tiny island with a large peninsula, added wraparound storage near the fridge, and converted lower cabinets into drawers. The peninsula provides a testing surface for recipes, while drawers and strategic storage improve accessibility for appliances, props, ingredients, and cookware during shoots.
