The owner was renovating the family homestead on a large farm and wanted a French Country kitchen that was warm and inviting. We selected and antique white with Espresso glaze and used Dura Supreme’s Nob Hill door style to accomplish this. We were able to enlarge the original kitchen by taking out the hallway behind it and incorporating that space into the kitchen which allows room for a center eat-in table. The pull out fillers with decorative pilasters, corbels on the wood hood, fluted clipped corners with decorator ends all add to the French Country design while providing the functions of unique storage and traffic flow thru the space. The mullion doors by the sink make it feel more airy and open and tie in with built in hutch cabinetry at the end of the room proudly displaying the family antique dinnerware. The subway tile with the simple decorative design behind the cooktop provide durability without being overpowering to the cabinetry details. Cabinets: Dura Supreme Crestwood - Nob Hill doors style - Antique white w/ Espresso glaze on maple - Flex Crown molding above Countertops: Crescent edged in 1875 - K - 35 - Summer Carnival - Stainless steel under mount kitchen sink

This open kitchen plan replaced a seldom used living room. Perimeter cabinets are Dura Supreme, Hudson door in Linen White, while the island is a custom color Sherwin Williams 9139 "Debonair". Budget restrains prohibited the use of solid surface, so designer Michele Harder selected WilsonArt "Spring Carnival" (#1876-35) for the post form counter-top which simulates a granite look. The Seamless Quartz Sink is Karran # Q-340 in a concrete color. The island countertop is Formica :Weathered Beamwood" #6410-NG. Homecrest Oasis Laminate in color Rhapsody for flooring throughtout the entire main level (including hallway leading to the bedrooms and into the family room).This is a seriously scratch resistance, water proof flooring which is perfect since there is a pool in the backyard.The pantry took some closet space from a bedroom and is covered by a custom designed sliding barn door. Laminate and Formica counter tops simulate a granite look while a quartz under-mount sink makes clean up a breeze. The custom colored island is flanked by white linen cabinetry. Live edge floating shelves add a touch of rustic charm.

Sleek leather and chrome dining chairs help to redefine the clients’ traditional stone dining table, while a pair of black glass chests offer sophisticated storage. A custom drop ceiling was constructed to define the seating arrangement and conceal electrical wires for a new chrome and crystal chandelier and warm LED accent lights at the heads of the table. The walls are painted Sandy Hook Gray and the trim is painted White Dove. The adjacent living area features a modular sectional sofa with custom silk pillows anchors the low-profile living seating arrangement. A large cowhide hide is flanked by contemporary lounge chairs and tempered glass and iron tables. Existing built-ins were painted to showcase choice accessories.

In the living room, a massive black Venetian glass chandelier suspends dramatically from a 12-foot tray ceiling, offset by detailed triple-crown molding. Custom wall molding adds texture to charcoal gray walls. Black granite frames the ventless fireplace, where black fire glass is used to conceal the gas plumbing lines. A flat screen television and integrated speakers are among several devices comprising a home automation system that wirelessly controls technology by a wall-mounted iPad or any smartphone. A long modular sofa with custom silk pillows anchors the living room seating arrangement, which is flanked by low-profile lounge chairs and a heavy slatted metal coffee table atop a large cowhide rug. Metal nesting tables and porcelain garden stools quickly double as extra seating. Louisiana artist Joseph “Jojo” Jilbert was commissioned to create a custom sculpture for the living room. Towering at more than eight feet, “Nebulas 1” is forged from fire in his signature style using reclaimed metal objects. The welded creation is modeled after the famed Pillars of Creation in the Eagle Nebula, where light and heat from young stars create columns that are trillions of miles long. The sculpture is burnished to a deep patina and engraved with intricate scrollwork. Large Fiddle Leaf Fig ficuses bring color and texture to the opposing corner, offering a natural foil to the spiny details of the artwork.

Creating a feel that's curated rather than cluttered, this room is well grounded in elements of the past. A large tiered pendant lightens up the space while stacked steamer trunks and a vintage carnival panel add interest amidst a neutral base of furniture and textiles.

Kids' room - transitional kids' room idea in Chicago

This is a found photo of one of our project with, I believe, Deane Inc. The brown and green palette is tasteful against the white kitchen, but making those blue chairs in the foreground work suggests a masterstroke. Please contact me with any questions about photo attribution.

This is an example of a contemporary landscaping in Seattle.
