Ben and Ela have been together since college and instead of getting married, they spent their money on a two-bedroom home. They've wanted to get rid of their kitchen since day one, but are dreading the thought of renovating it on their own. Contractor James Young ditches their kitchen's florescent lighting and all-white color scheme and gives it a modern look. In addition, he opens up the space and brings in a cool recycled glass countertop, high-end floor tile and sparkling metal accents.
