When applied to the kitchen, symmetry helps to identify where items should be placed in order to create a balanced plan that feels orderly and elegant. In this Indian Hill project, an eye for symmetry in an asymmetrical space helped define and improve the kitchen's relationship with the connected rooms. We spoke with Neal's Designer Cyndi Kohler about how she merged formal principles with practical space planning to create a new welcoming and comfortable kitchen.

Those with many areas and doors can lead to confusion about what guests have access to or how the space is shared . To solve this issue for this Maineville project, Lead Designer Jodi Smith suggested an uncommon solution- turn the single bathroom into two separate bathrooms . The result?

There was a feeling that the first floor was giving the family a hug, but one that lasted too long and too tightly. With the family’s need to feel an easy sense of connection with each other and a desire to have a space that worked with their daily activities, it was obvious that the cramped first floor wasn’t going to suit their lives. With the goal of creating a new kitchen and first-floor design that promoted active togetherness, the Neal’s Design Remodel team created a new open space plan for the family.

Hendy](https://info.neals.com/author/neal-r-hendy) on Tue, Nov 2, 2021 [![](https://info.neals.com/hubfs/49104A_13.jpg) ](https://info.neals.com/project-tour-contemporary-master-bath-in-indian-hill) ### A contemporary and relaxing redesign makes a narrow master bathroom feel comfortable and open. Long, narrow rooms can be challenging spaces to design. This master bathroom project in Indian Hill shows how to maximize usable space while maintaining a comfortable and accessible layout. The new bathroom is a beautifully appointed contemporary space with a playful and serene style. Color, motif, and layout come together in this bathroom for a fresh new space that allows you to easily ignore the long, narrow footprint.
