Portland, Oregon's Jessica Helgerson Interior Design specializes in environmentally sustainable commercial and residential interiors. In this turn-of-the-century four-square in Southeast Portland, Helgerson give the home a complete face-lift. The new interior is quite striking. 
The kitchen, back pantry and mud room were gutted to create a large, open kitchen. Adding to the kitchen's airy feel, the appliances are white or covered with cabinetry. Adding cabinet panels to appliances is an excellent way to keep them timeless and not date your kitchen. 
The dark ebony stained floors are a nice contrast to the white cabinets and farmhouse sink. And I do love white kitchens!
Helgerson does a wonderful job transitioning from the kitchen to the dining room by flanking the entry with glass-front cabinets. 
Box beams added to the dining room help define the space from the adjacent living room. The sleek round dining table was made custom. The eye-catching blown glass sculpture was by glass artist, Andy Paiko of Portland, OR.
Lovely space. Would you agree?

Oh Cristin, this is amazing, I love this place! I am definitely checking her site out, thanks for sharing!
Best,

Great space! I most love that painted black trim in the first picture. Saving that one for my "someday" file :)
Wow, beautiful... I love the glass front cabinets and the kitchen is to die for!
Agreed, this is lovely. You're right, white kitchens are pretty much the only way to go right now. But I'm glad they did dark floors for some contrast and interest.
The rooms are so beautiful.
LOVE the farmhouse sink... Seriously hoping to own one someday!
such a pretty kitchen. Love the pops of blue.
A stunning home, very striking with a limited color palette. She is one talented designer!

this space is amazing - I love dark floors and light walls (hence my own home!), contemporary traditional look at its finest!
Those curved dining benches are so unusual and make that room. Love it all.
I agree. My favorites are the contrast of the dark floor in the kitchen, the ceiling in the dining room (and those curved benches). Have a good day Cristin!
Yes, it's absolutely beautiful! That would be my perfect kitchen.
the first image is just perfect
great work
Just gorgeous Cristin! I won't get tired of this house at all!
I love white kitchens, too! This really is a stunning makeover!!
I've had that first picture on file for a while now but had never seen the rest of the house. The kitchen is actually a surprise to me - I wouldn't have expected it to look like that after seeing the dining room. But it's still fabulous.
Nice kitchen. I love the cabinets. You can never have enough cabinets.
What an incredible rehab; I'm excited to check out additional photos from the portfolio. Thanks for sharing!
Yes, I would agree. wow, it really is gorgeous.
The top image I have had in my inspiration file for a few years, but I never knew who designed it, so I especially love this post. Beautiful interiors!
once again, you've come up with some sensational pics to smoose over! thanks
