In the world of interior renovation, true transformation doesn’t always require demolition, just vision, precision, and the right materials. That’s exactly what Leonardo Caporossi, founder of Chromalto, brought to this stunning kitchen remodel in Miami. With the help of EVOLV Decor Architectural Films, he turned a flat, lifeless space into a rich, elegant centerpiece for the home.
The Vision: Add Personality and Warmth
When the homeowner first reached out to Chromalto, their goal was clear: they wanted a kitchen with character, contrast, and elegance. The original setup felt sterile — white cabinetry, neutral surfaces, and nothing that truly reflected their personal style.
That’s where Leonardo stepped in, blending his background in architecture with the versatility of EVOLV Decor Films to craft a solution that would dramatically elevate the space without a single cabinet replacement.
“The client wanted to bring more character and elegance to their kitchen, which felt cold and lacked personality.” — Leonardo, Founder of Chromalto
The Materials: EVOLV PURE Collection – Color Soft Touch #108 & Wood #162
To deliver the bold, modern update the client envisioned, Leonardo turned to two premium finishes from the EVOLV PURE Collection:
- Color Soft Touch 0108 – used to wrap the kitchen cabinets and bar area, offering a rich matte black finish with a velvety feel that elevates the space with understated elegance.
- Wood 0162 – applied to the backsplash, this warm wood-textured finish adds organic contrast and depth, perfectly balancing the darker cabinetry with a natural, grounded aesthetic.
Together, these materials showcase how the PURE Collection blends tactile sophistication with real-world durability — ideal for upscale residential renovations.
“I selected EVOLV for the wide range of finishes available in stock, and the flexibility to order only the exact quantities I needed — which helped minimize waste and streamline the process.”
The Challenges: Precision and Pairing
As with many high-contrast projects, the technical execution had to be flawless. Leonardo emphasized the importance of detail when working with black finishes over a white base even small imperfections would stand out.
In addition to managing tight tolerances, Leonardo faced two key challenges:
- Finding the right primer to prep the tiled backsplash for long-term adhesion
- Sourcing gold profiles that would complement the EVOLV films and elevate the final look
But the results speak for themselves.
What once felt like a cold, generic kitchen now radiates confidence and elegance. The deep black cabinetry creates stunning contrast, while the wood backsplash adds texture and warmth. Subtle gold accents finish the look — a curated detail that ties it all together.
“The most rewarding part of every project is always the same: seeing the client’s reaction — the surprise and satisfaction when they see the ultra-realistic transformation.”
