Project Features:

 

Zinc Countertops, Dark Oak Cabinets, Wood Windows, Tile Flooring, Downdraft Stove at Island

Project Narrative:

 

The original structure was built in 1904 and retained much of the original features and details except for a previously remodeled Kitchen.  The goal of this project was to not only give the owner a new, fully functioning Kitchen complete with contemporary appliances but to do so in a way that would enhance the character of the house.  Another goal was to screen the appliances from view as much as possible which was achieved with the incorporation of a new island inspired by the old iconographic ‘farmhouse dining table’.  The open floor plan, clean wall/soffit lines and zinc countertops/dark oak cabinets strike a nice balance between the original historic character of the house and elegant contemporary design.

Before

Special Feature:

 

The new island was modeled to resemble a piece of hand-built freestanding furniture.  The incorporation of the zinc countertop and dark oak cabinets give it a consistency and harmony with the exiting décor.
