Ben Herzog
We added a 2-story addition to the back of this landmarked, 25-foot wide Brooklyn Heights brownstone. Working in conjunction with designer Elizabeth Cooke-King, the top level of the addition became a large, light-filled kitchen and the bottom level a baby's room and a sitting area / study for the master bedroom suite. Old brick was used on the exterior surrounding the windows. The black trim and panels are made from an acetylated-wood product that resists rot and does not need to be painted frequently. Inside, the fireplace mantles were replaced with onyx and the staircase to the bottom level was 'turned' at the top to make room for a coat closet.
Finished project photography is by Michael Lee.

Ben Herzog Thank you for the very kind comment. While my firm was responsible for the general layout, the windows and size of the addition, Elizabeth Cooke-King was the interior designer responsible for the kitchen details.

added by Shawn Gauthier to 12 Ways to Have a Nicer Kitchen This Year
Create an accent wall. It could be a backsplash, the wall behind the kitchen table or the space above the sink — wherever you feel could use a splash of color or pattern. Achieve it via tiles, paint or wallpaper, and transform the personality of your kitchen.

I wonder what would be more expensive, blue countertops, or blue in the backspalsh. These counter tops are pretty. This was the ONLY blue thing Zeke approved of. I know it's pricey, so maybe mismatched counters; island pretty and the counters more neutral?
