Nice job - we're in the beginning process of a similar project, reusing as many of the cabinets as we can and will add to the oak cabinets w/black, so as to not try to "match" the color of the existing ones. There's so much to think about/consider. We talk, measure, draw, argue, and retreat! Luckily we're about 2 years from starting! Thanx for sharing the pictures!

Very very nice. The layout looks so much better. Particularly like the detail on the range hood and the french doors.
