Interior designer Cynthia Mitchell and kitchen designer Jackie Howard recently redesigned the kitchen of a Battery Place home in Chattanooga, Tenn. The kitchen contains clean, open spaces with strong lines.

It’s one of nine premier kitchens included in the self-guided tour, a fundraiser for the Junior League of Chattanooga. Each features the latest in culinary design and state-of-the-art appliances.
Making the circuit of homes, the designers said, is an ideal way to get ideas of what you can do in your own kitchen.
This kitchen redo, handled by Jackie Howard, owner of Scarlett’s Cabinetry, was part of an overall remodel of a home in Battery Place near the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. Cynthia Mitchell, owner of Mitchell Design Group, was in charge of the full redesign project.
The plan called for gutting the 348-square-foot, L-shaped kitchen and adding new furnishings, appliances and paint to make it the focal point of this spacious home overlooking the Tennessee River.
