Milionaire Luxury: Lottery Winner Hires Sarah Richardson To Remodel Her Kitchen | Design Inc | Abode

paper was light gold in medieval times [Music] i want tobacco sugar [Music] that everything we thought we knew about the world might turn out to be completely wrong i'm sarah richardson this is heather this is the kitchen heather's asked us to redesign to be given away as part of a lottery prize and this is what the kitchen looks like now thanks to lots of help from design inc so [Music] design inc is creating a dream kitchen for a home that some lucky person's gonna win in a lottery a home that's a five hour flight away from what i've heard the house is spectacular and sits on a prime oceanfront location can't wait to see it once tommy and i find it oh don't we want to go down there i don't think so what it doesn't go 17 18 19. you'd think the ocean would be hard to miss i think we have to go um back where we came uh right this looks familiar to me made it so when we're doing a hospital lottery we want a prize that's going to appeal to the largest cross-section of people it's going to be stunning something that people don't normally see in their everyday lives i'm into that let's take a look shall we big and shall we say not landing in fact the whole place needs an update but we're here for the kitchen it's huge and it's it's green it's a green stadium i'd like people to go in and say this is my dream kitchen family it's stunning yet it's warm and it's inviting granite high-end appliances really needs to appeal to a broad cross-section of the public wow where did we start the cabinetry is not that old so technically if you wanted to do this on a tight budget you could just re-spray it all that said you would have to like the configuration right and i have a problem with that so we have an incredibly spectacular view right we've got mountains we've got the ocean this is gorgeous it feels dim in here i mean the house is incredibly bright but it feels dim and i don't really understand what this is all about and for a house this size i'm gonna say i think the cooking space seems kind of small well look at the ovens you can't get a turkey in here you have to cook your turkey in this one and half your turkey in the other one as for the smaller details okay okay can i just say something did you just see the woman above the range well that obviously has to come out wow where do we start is any of this worth keeping probably not this is measuring up to be a huge job every time i see this kitchen it's bigger than i remember it 400 square feet not including the sitting area not including the eating area and not including the butler's pantry i see the challenges ahead but i'm still thinking big let's talk about layup should we have big cooking surface here you could have some sort of like a flower sinker servery or i don't know what have you here and a giant like i'm now talking huge 12 feet 15 feet maybe it's broken up at different heights island it comes from one side all the way across to the other side so you know me i don't like angles no there's too many in here we have to change the floors yes okay so they have to go from light that's changed into dark definitely nice like coffee espresso kind of tone and we've got to lift this room's spirit with color i would say white and cream works for me as we're playing to the real star of this kitchen the view there are if you look towards the horizon one two three four absolutely sublime shades of blue gray anything else that you can think of that we should keep in mind no just a little short timeline okay i was gonna say so what is the timeline six weeks okay from start to finish okay i gotta go but i know back to design inc's home base a five-hour flight best spent coming up with a plan i'm glad you're sitting down because i have a problem [Music] design inc is pulling together a dream kitchen for a lottery home three time zones away like it's so big it's huge and we've got a short six weeks to get it done but i know to lock some sort of plan so this is the kitchen cabinetry and it all fits according to the drawings it all fits so i like that so here's the question what color is it what finish is it how many colors are there what if we did everything the same and then created some interest through our countertop choices so let's go carrera in front of the window let's go carrera on the raised bar yes let's go gray slate for the big prep area which also has the sink right and then let's go stainless for the cooking area the other thing that we could do to kind of add some interest is we can go with a different knob choice right we can do an accent knob to make this island a decorative piece yes and then we can go with a more just simple utilitarian knob for the rest of the space as tommy and i brainstorm the kitchen is being ripped apart everything into the recycle bin would you believe a thousand square feet of wallpaper in this kitchen [Music] as the demo continues we're moving our ocean gray and blue scheme forward it was a great plan with this one's kind of cool maybe a piece of this i like that [Music] kitchens are hard enough there are so many moving parts involved so here i am doing another one the biggest one ever and it's on the other side of the country that's a challenge because kitchens really do take a lot of on-site supervision if anything goes wrong if anything's installed incorrectly there can be a domino effect that affects everything else so i'm a little concerned about that but at the same time i'm pretty excited about the challenge i'm glad you're sitting down because i have a problem okay i'll tell you what's really great about the huge island you've designed is that it's perfect for the room what's not great about it is that this slate which is the one that you wanted doesn't come big enough to fit on the island i didn't even think about that one small but very important detail what if we did black granite okay that's what it looks like when it's polished which i need it's all don't like which you hate what if we used it the color is perfectly compatible okay okay maybe it's even a little bit better because it's got a little bit more interest we're thinking about this being a really high traffic counter in black granite back across the country to sell the scheme to heather and check in on the progress these are the samples that we had made up for the kitchen cabinets now this will be the main bulk of the kitchen area all of the lowers and uppers in the main part of the kitchen for the fireplace area really simple carrera and for the countertops what we've decided is to do it that's in the stop here still very much a construction zone um honed and it ends up actually really looking like slate and the amazing fiesta resistance is this they call it magic mosaic and it's this random sized multi-tone marble mosaic tile that we want to do as the backsplash up behind the cooktop and across that elevation in the kitchen that's fabulous ties everything together so we're pretty excited about this so it's a go yes it go with heather's okay tommy and i hit the streets for furnishings and accents to make this one hot kitchen what is that it kind of does compel you to bat it like how do you know i feel like it's a cat toy we want this size we want something that's casual because it's the dining area right what do you think about the the painted base because the painted base is basically the same color as the cabinetry it's a feeling a bit country kitchen see about it like it's there's something a little bit holly hobby about it to me like it looks like it's i just think it's a little bit crafty how about this one this side like a lot i think we have to go with the bigger one because we have a seven foot bench coming and 100 centimeters is 36 inches no there's only one way to answer this question [Music] not including my heels are my heels five six not five six right yeah well this is at least two feet long this is five six six foot six yeah it's i'd say it's seven and a half feet i'd say it's 90 inches are you comfortable see you later next no i think we can pass on the race cars today yeah what do you think about the concentric circles i think it's fine that works together perfectly [Music] as for lighting so what do you think about the sizes i asked and they come in small medium and large this is the large for demonstration purposes so that we can choose but we can get that one size down which is really nice you know finding things for this kitchen is the easy part and it was another 12 hours late leaving toronto getting it across the country now that's another story is this truck driving straight or are they stopping along the way design inc is lifting a lottery home kitchen out of the 80s i'd like people to go in and say this is my dream kitchen comfortable see you later and we're putting our trust in local trades to make it marvelous they all get an a for effort but with only two weeks left they're going to have to hustle [Music] the timeline of the project it's just too tight for everybody's comfort not that it can't be done but uh getting guys here and having them stay it's pretty difficult any questions or concerns um no just concerns with pictures in your own you know the lottery house is located in such a beautiful city would be nice to take some of it in alas we've got to keep pushing forward let's just see where we are [Music] that's what i call progress it's like a party in here hi fellas hi guys so you didn't need the extra tile i brought you that lindsay put in her luggage while the guys have been working hard there are still a few key issues to overcome that counter looks great all right looks amazing what happened to the rest of our counters uh we're guaranteed to have my uh nine o'clock didn't show up yet so i thought it was coming yesterday it was yeah yesterday i measured it a foot a foot short so it didn't show up a countertop that's a foot too short that's a problem we still missing one of we are yeah i don't think that wolfgang's told you about where you don't have it we can't find it two were in stock and one was ordered so we'll get on the phone and find out where our third fixture is one of our three pendant lights is missing i'm getting a bit worried this part was supposed to be black the top are supposed to be fair yeah is that right yes they seem to be making it in black at the moment sure kick me when i'm down can i go and for the final icing on the cake did we have enough knobs no i think we're short of here everything is so tough we're all holding our breath that this kitchen will be done in time for ticket sales to begin so we have two days left we have a truck that's lost we have no countertops we're missing a pendant everything is happening in two days it's okay so far you think it's fabulous it's going to be the dream kitchen that we had talked about that we had wanted heather's faith in us is unwavering i think they'll be lined up to buy tickets but my faith in the movers is a bit shaken great um is this truck driving straight or are they stopping along the way [Music] and it was another 12 hours late leaving toronto [Music] what remember all that fabulous stuff tommy and i shopped for five six you're not five six i am to put it simply we sent a truck ahead of when we knew our flight would arrive we'd made up and everything would be golden but somewhere along the way we lost complete communication where's the truck where's our stuff i guess they're sort of at the halfway mark now at this point in a project we should be seeing the light at the end of the tunnel not this time either we have to find a fixture that will arrive by tomorrow or else we have to find three fixtures and finding three fixtures is never easy and take down the two that have already been installed that we've already paid the electrician to install and return them no we're gonna get that fixture the two that are up look amazing and we have to do it to top it all off when this stuff does finally arrive the floors will have just been refinished everything will have to be tucked into an overcrowded garage until the floors are dry as i try to track down the truck to get an eta tommy is dispatched to find the last minute accessories i love how everything is so large in scale it needs to be as this is a huge kitchen i'm lucky i get to come and shop and then she pays i know steve these are 60 off and then i'll run around and then there's all this awesome white stuff wow 500 bucks she'll kill me i can't do it i love it trust tommy to think that a budget is just a suggestion hi how are you i'm fine i'm just calling you to check and see how much money i have to spend here because i'm going a little bit hog wild dishes forks spoons and pretty vases are great but what about the kitchen table lighting and other major elements hey guys anybody seen a brown box and the bar top the bar top is apparently on route but we're not sure what that means what we need now is faith [Music] designing's doing a mammoth kitchen for an oceanfront lottery home thousands of miles from home six weeks okay from start to finish it was going smooth and silk until um is this truck driving straight our truck disappeared you know me i don't like angles no there's too many in here big sigh as the truck finally arrived a couple of days late but it's left us with tons to do we've got a plane to catch in 48 hours we've got so much stuff that's arrived it all has to be unpacked and designated to certain areas oh about a thousand boxes worth sarah you and i have to locate the light fixtures which keeping fingers crossed did arrive yesterday wish us luck hey guys anybody seen a brown box um i wondered if you could give me a description of the box um i found it oh sarah's found it never mind oh my god drop that box and you die great that can go up i'm noticing looking around that there are is a lot of challenges cabinetry is all accounted for but do we have enough handles we are short a few handles uh we'll have to do a quick count and run out let's do a quick count because the running out is a half hour drive away one major area of concern for me is the countertops don't seem to be here do we know when the when the bar top is coming yet the bar top is apparently on route but we're not sure what that means does that root stop for like two eggs over easy couple of coffees you never know crews are working down to the wire on this one and i hear that our countertop has miraculously arrived is it the right one the granite is here so is it carrera yes it is it is carrera yes oh that's a good thing explaining away a missing knob or two is much easier than explaining a missing countertop [Music] the biggest challenge we had with this space was trying to come up with a concept when we didn't really have a strong client perspective not knowing who your client is makes it pretty difficult so we decided to try and come up with a concept that would appeal to the greatest number of people possible [Music] hey hey if you're gonna say it looks good you have to save it like it means you like it come on it looks great it will it'll look it'll look great look at that yep the foyer the green bench is going to go on the far side and then the chairs and then the chairs around on the rest of the sides [Music] we wanted this kitchen to work with the architecture of the house we wanted it to feel like a home on the ocean which it is and i think we had to we had to take it back to what our inspiration for this project was which was the view and the color palette that we see when we stand here and look out to the water and the mountains and the sky there are if you look towards the horizon one two three four absolutely sublime shades of blue gray [Music] everything arrived while the floors were still wet now they're dry and it's raining will we ever win [Music] i think the overall style of the kitchen is i would say it's coastal and for me that means that it has a sense of history so it's a more traditional style but it is fresh and it has some more whimsical details nothing too serious and nothing too fussy so it's welcoming to all but at the same time it still has a level of polish and sophistication that is befitting of the grandeur of this house i think people are going to love it it's better than i could have hoped for i think they'll be lined up to buy tickets [Music] sometimes you look for some feedback or an indication from a client and i guess what happened here is tommy and i just got to run free and do whatever we wanted which has actually been a whole lot of fun another project done just in time for ticket sales to begin and for us to catch our flight home [Music]
