Peacock & Company’s team of experienced design-build remodelers is here to guide you through everything you need to know to remodel right in 2025. We’ll show you how thoughtful design can transform your home for modern living, tackling outdated spaces, maximizing storage, creating an inviting indoor-outdoor flow, and so much more. It’s all about you and how you want to live!
Kitchen Remodeling Goals: Hosting-Ready, Organized, and Built for Busy Lives
You know what you need—plenty of counter space for everyone to gather and no bumping elbows as you move from stovetop to sink. Yet, for many, reality includes outdated cabinets, cramped layouts, and constant clutter that eats up valuable prep space.
It’s time to create open, airy kitchens by reconfiguring walls, adding a spacious island, and using storage innovations that keep essentials at hand but out of sight. Deep drawers, pull-out pantries, and strategically placed outlets are just a few custom features that help you float through your new space. Modernized appliances and smart tech are the new essentials in the quest for convenience. Add tech-enhanced appliances, like a Wi-Fi-enabled oven or a touchless faucet. Say goodbye to oak—modern cabinetry in sleek, soft-close finishes with customizable inserts means everything you do is easier. This investment in your daily experience and special moments is endlessly practical.
New Living Room Magic: Cozy Yet Contemporary Spaces Made for Hanging Out
You should be excited to entertain, relax, and unwind in your living room. Yet many homeowners struggle with a space that’s either overly formal, too cluttered, or just doesn’t flow. Mismatched seating areas, dated features, or furniture that feels more fit in than fit for the space can make the room feel disconnected from the rest of the home.
You’re ready for an open, versatile, and cohesive living room. Peacock & Company’s approach combines thoughtful design with practical elements. We’ll work with you to incorporate built-in shelving and hidden storage options, keeping games, books, and tech devices close at hand without visible clutter. We often suggest accent walls with textural elements like stone or reclaimed wood to add warmth and unity. For those wanting a bit of warmth and wow, a floor-to-ceiling fireplace or a custom media wall elevates the space and becomes a visual anchor.
We’ll help you curate layered lighting to create a cozy, welcoming environment for day and night. Could you borrow space from somewhere else? We’ll explore your room dimensions, furniture layout, and your taste to make sure every element fits harmoniously. The result? A stylish, functional living room that flows seamlessly into your home.
Bathroom Bliss: A Private Oasis with Modern Appeal
Your bathroom is where the day begins and ends, and it should feel like a retreat—not an afterthought. But a too-small space offering outdated tile and clunky fixtures can keep you from unwinding.
Your bathroom remodel can change the way you punctuate your day. Could you expand your bathroom with an addition, bump out, or by reconfiguring your floor plan? Let’s discuss. Floating vanities free up floor space while adding style, and custom cabinetry brings clever storage for towels, toiletries, and personal items you’d rather keep tucked away. Frameless glass showers and freestanding tubs turn the bath into a visually open and elegant space that invites you to relax. Thoughtful lighting, from dimmable sconces for ambiance to statement mirrors with integrated lights, creates a warm glow that enhances every moment in your space. Let’s add smart tech, like heated floors or voice-activated lighting, to create the feeling of luxury at your fingertips.
Outdoor Living Upgrades: A Summer-Ready Space for Entertaining and Unwinding
Gathering and relaxing in your own little slice of fresh air is one of the joys of homeownership. If your backyard setup consists of a few scattered chairs and a simple grill, you might be missing out on the true potential of your space.
Should you prioritize an outdoor remodel with shade, dining, lounging, and cooking areas to get the recreation area that will bring the, ahem, folks to the yard? Adding outdoor living space like a deck, porch, or sunroom can offer affordable extra space. We’ll help you plan the layout, adding features like built-in seating, cozy fire pits, or an outdoor kitchen to make your new space a natural choice for entertaining from spring through fall.
A Beautiful New Bedroom: A Retreat Tailored to Comfort and Function
A bedroom should be more than a place to sleep—it should feel like a personalized cocoon. For many, a room lacking function and storage can feel like a catch-all space instead of a sanctuary.
Modern primary bedroom remodels create a room designed with your daily needs in mind, creating zones for unwinding, reading, and dressing that support restful routines. Thoughtful bedroom design starts with custom closet systems. Built-in shelves allow accessible storage options. Lighting is also essential in shaping a space that feels restful and usable day or night. Let’s include layered lighting with bedside sconces, dimmable ceiling fixtures, and warm, ambient hues. Accent walls or texture-driven elements in soft, neutral tones complete the picture, adding quiet personality to the room without overpowering its simplicity.
Home Office Haven: Where Productivity Meets Design
Working from home demands a space that supports focus while fitting seamlessly into the home’s style. Yet, many home offices struggle with makeshift furniture arrangements or limited storage, turning them into cluttered corners rather than dedicated work zones.
A well-designed office starts with practical considerations: ergonomic seating, accessible storage, and a desk area spacious enough for everything you need close at hand. Built-in cabinetry or shelving systems organize paperwork, tech, and supplies, freeing up surface space and helping the room stay visually tidy. Integrate tech-enabled features like wireless charging stations and adjustable lighting for serious flexibility. Your designer can help you select the right color palette—a mix of calming neutrals or light earth tones—to create the perfect zoom background without being distracting.
Basement Finishing: Square Footage Where it Already Exists
Basements are full of untapped potential, often ending up as mere storage for unused items. But a thoughtfully designed basement can offer so much more, transforming into a space that feels as intentional and stylish as any other room in the home.
A multi-purpose basement design begins by identifying zones for various activities. A media wall with built-in shelving creates a home theater feel, while a mini bar with a sink and seating area brings an authentic touch for gatherings. Thoughtful window placement and lighting design can keep your basement feeling cheery in all lighting conditions. Add inviting finishes like durable flooring, textured walls, and other touches to create an extension of your home below grade.
