Designed by Alison Johnston, this California home accommodates a wonderful family of five. Built as a modern farmhouse, this residence features many personal touches, including vintage furniture from the client’s extended family as well as barnwood from the husband’s family farm. This classic aesthetic is prominent throughout the home, especially in the kitchen, with vertical board cabinets, a custom zinc hood, and icebox hardware on the island cabinets making a bold statement. While achieving this vintage aesthetic was central in the design process, Niche contemporary kitchen island pendant lighting adds a fresh and current twist.
