What changed

The house was closed in. A wall separated the kitchen from the living space, which is what made the kitchen feel small and the living room feel dark. Taking that wall out is the decision the whole project turns on — everything after it is finish work.

Opening a wall is not the same as removing one. What is carried above it has to be carried somewhere else, and in a single-storey South Florida house that usually means a beam sized for the span and posts down to a footing that can take the point load. That is done before anyone talks about cabinets.

The new kitchen runs the full length of the opened wall, with the sink toward the garden doors and a marble feature wall behind the ovens. New flooring was then laid through the entire house in one material, which is what makes the plan read as one space rather than three rooms that happen to be joined.
