Joe and team at Bayern Builders (Don, Phil, Mark, Pete, Ed) are ROCKSTARS! In the beginning design stages of designing our kitchen, Joe really made us think about how we could renovate our space. It was so cool to see it come to life. They are professionals in every way... they worked timely and cleaned up after every workday (I have two Littles running around) Shoutout to Dale from TriStar Cabinets, our custom cabinets are a dream! I can't thank Joe and his team enough for all of their hard work! I highly recommend Joe and Bayern Builders to take care of all of your renovation needs!

Kitchen Remodel

About This Project

For this complete kitchen remodel, our clients prioritized space efficiency and family functionality. To do this, we anchored the bright, transitional design with custom floor-to-ceiling white cabinetry, maximizing vertical storage and ensuring a dedicated place for every pantry item and small appliance. To further optimize the home's footprint, we built in a stacked washer and dryer unit right into the kitchen layout. Neatly concealed behind a standard closet door to hide it away. This allows the homeowners to easily multitask household chores without sacrificing square footage.

At the heart of the room is a striking, deep-blue custom island topped with beautifully veined quartz. Designed with a busy family in mind, it features a centralized gas cooktop and built-in seating, creating a natural hub for meal prep, homework, and gathering. Complete with double wall ovens, a large stainless steel refrigerator, and a dedicated beverage station with an under-counter fridge, this project balanced high-capacity family living with crisp, modern design.

Transitional Kitchen Remodel in Chicagoland

Location coming soon

This Chicagoland kitchen was transformed from a dated, compartmentalized space into a warm, thoughtfully designed room that works as hard as it looks good. The result is a transitional kitchen that balances traditional craftsmanship with clean, contemporary sensibility, anchored by a generous island with a white quartz countertop, black leather barstools, and a pendant light that draws the eye upward into the open ceiling. The full layout now flows easily from the prep zone to the cooking wall to a dedicated coffee bar tucked near the entry. A purposeful design that makes daily life feel more organized and more enjoyable. Every finish was selected to complement and reinforce the overall character of the space. The custom cabinetry runs throughout in a warm greige tone with shaker-style doors and matte black hardware; a pairing that feels grounded without being heavy. The cooking wall features a custom range flanked by full-height cabinetry that serves as the natural focus point. The backsplash carries a subtle linear tile in soft white, adding quiet texture without competing with the cabinetry or countertops. The coffee station, a standout feature of the remodel, combines lower cabinetry with two floating shelves and the same quartz surface used on the island, creating a cohesive and functional nook for morning routines. The team at Bayern Builders carried this level of detail across every inch of the space, from the under-cabinet lighting that warms the counters to the hardwood flooring that ties the kitchen seamlessly into the rest of the home.

Luxurious Kitchen & Master Bath Remodel

Location coming soon

For this project, our goal was to execute a truly Luxurious Remodel that serves as the heart of the home, offering an inviting atmosphere for both everyday family life and high-end entertaining. Kitchen Remodel: This kitchen remodel centers on a timeless design, pairing full-height white shaker-style perimeter cabinets with an expansive, dark-finished center island. Polished dark stone tops the island, while white quartz and a classic white subway tile backsplash line the walls above warm hardwood flooring. The space is outfitted with professional-grade appliances, including a large gas range beneath a custom hood, a built-in double wall oven, and a paneled refrigerator. Natural light from an arched window over the undermount double sink is supplemented by twin crystal chandeliers. Adjacent to the main prep area, a dedicated beverage center is defined by contrasting matte black cabinetry, glass-front display uppers, a dual-zone cooler, and additional white quartz counter space. Master Bath Remodel: This master bath remodel features a transitional design centered on custom white shaker cabinetry and large-format tiled flooring. The layout includes an expansive wrap-around vanity, integrated mirrored storage towers, and dual sinks with chrome fixtures. A classic freestanding clawfoot tub is positioned beneath twin skylights to maximize natural light, while the frameless glass walk-in shower is finished with a marble tile surround and a built-in bench. Modern lighting, including an LED ring pendant complement the neutral palette and functional additions like the heated towel rack and wall-mounted storage.

Whole-Home Remodel in Chicagoland: A Family-First Transformation

Location coming soon

This Chicagoland home was reimagined from the ground up to support how a busy family actually lives. The homeowners came to the project with a clear vision: they wanted a connected main floor where cooking, homework, movie nights, and morning routines could all unfold without anyone feeling stuck in their own corner of the house. The result is a series of spaces that flow naturally into one another, anchored by a generous kitchen island, a layered living room with custom built-ins, a refreshed powder bath, and a striking millwork moment along the staircase that ties the whole home together. The kitchen sets the tone. White shaker cabinetry runs floor to ceiling, framed by matte black hardware, a herringbone tile backsplash, and quartz countertops that wrap an oversized island with seating for the whole family. Three black lantern pendants give the room presence, while a double wall oven and gas cooktop keep it serious about cooking. The adjacent living room balances that brightness with warmer tones, a shiplap fireplace surround flanked by custom built-in cabinetry and shelving, all sitting on rich hardwood floors. In the powder bath, board-and-batten wainscoting meets a patterned feature wall, giving a small space real personality. And along the staircase, a floor-to-ceiling chevron paneled accent wall pairs with a stained wood handrail and wrought iron balusters.
