jack's place - the kitchen

The space was opened up and made "family central" by removing walls and installing new steel beams above the finished ceiling.

Bud Dietrich, AIA Sorry but I don't. It was just one of those things the owner had and we thought it'd add to the scene so used it.

This is a beautiful home. Could you tell me when it was built? The colors caught my eye and of course the old sugar maples in the background. Thinking about remodeling and curious about the story of this place. Thank you, Jennifer »

Bud Dietrich, AIA Hi Jennifer-

The photos are of a remodeling / renovation that was completed in 2006 / 2007. You can e-mail me if you have any other questions or would like more info. My e-mail address is bud@hfdarchitects.com

What Houzz contributors are saying:
The wall that separated the kitchen from the family room and dining room was also removed. In this case, a steel beam was installed above the ceiling line as the span (unsupported length) is quite long.

The arched opening between the family room and kitchen helps to define the spaces as separate (but together) and is better suited to the layout of an older home. Of course, with older homes, headers are needed for structural reasons. This homeowner opted for the header and arched opening rather than a steel beam across the whole space. If they had opted for the latter, they would have lost that wall of cabinets and the handy hidden mudroom behind.
