Project 229 Kitchen

As the saying goes, the kitchen is the heart of the home. And creating a beautiful, functional center for this family home was of the utmost importance to these clients. They chose to forgo a traditional dining room in favor of an open concept kitchen and breakfast room that connected to the main family room, in order to create one large communal space perfect for gatherings.

The clients wanted to maintain subdued, neutral colors that maximized natural lighting and brought their beautiful backyard landscape in; texture and warmth were key in the “organic modern” scheme.

The clients’ other request was to keep kitchen gadgetry and clutter to a minimum to achieve a clean, minimal aesthetic, so the majority of appliances and “kitchen tech” are hidden in inset reeded cabinetry with a focus on more drawers for organization. A white quartz slab on the backsplash and modern white oak range hood keep the range wall light and uncluttered.

The true star is the expansive kitchen island with a contrasting dark quartz countertop that the client and her three small children adore gathering around.
