After raising five children in their well-loved South Fayette home, Beth and her husband were ready to transform their worn but cherished space into a house that truly reflected their style. Originally referred by their neighbor—a previous AKN kitchen client—they decided to complete all their hopes and dreams at once, from a stunning kitchen and primary bathroom overhaul to custom-built-ins, a personal makeup vanity, and energy-efficient windows throughout.

“Beth and I were very impressed with the work that AKN Interiors performed on our home. They kept on schedule, communicated with us daily, showed themselves to be honorable when a couple of curve balls were thrown, and when done, we are in LOVE with our upgraded rooms! Nice going Andrew and team :)”
—The Henrys, South Fayette
We created 3D renderings that brought their vision to life before construction began. We coordinated all renovations, spanning multiple rooms and systems, into one 16-week project that transformed their entire home efficiently.
The completely reimagined kitchen features custom cabinetry, a dramatic statement hood vent, trapezoid zellige tile backsplash, and a large island that has become the heart of their empty-nest home.
Custom dining room cabinetry with elegant glass-front built-ins now beautifully display their cherished heirloom china, creating a sophisticated entertaining space.
The primary bathroom underwent a complete overhaul, while the bedroom gained a custom makeup vanity, providing Beth with her own personal beauty space.
New Pella windows and ProVia entry doors throughout the entire house solved water issues while dramatically improving energy efficiency and curb appeal.
High-end kitchen appliances that blend performance with the sophisticated design aesthetic.
Artisan backsplash tile that adds texture and visual interest to the kitchen.
Thornton Interior Design created a unified look that flows beautifully throughout all renovated spaces.
A dedicated, thoughtfully designed space to get ready with ease, comfort, and intention.
Dedicated niches store everyday essentials while keeping the space clean, organized, and visually calm.
Maximize storage in a sleek, built-in form, keeping the space organized and effortlessly functional.
What could have been a multi-year project became a seamless 16-week transformation. The Henrys now have a home that honors decades of family memories while perfectly reflecting their style as empty nesters—from the stunning kitchen to the spa-like primary suite, elegant dining room, and energy-efficient updates that will serve them for years to come.
