Complete kitchen remodel. This kitchen was a great project to participate in. The owner initially had no design. I just wish I had a before picture.

Bilotta Senior Designer, Tom Vecchio and Lauren Stanley of Alive + Kicking Design were faced with a closed-in U-shaped kitchen that less inventive minds would have assumed offered few options, since the wall facing the “U” contained two below-counter-height windows that couldn’t be altered. They were undeterred by that obstacle. They removed the peninsula and instead placed an “island” against the wall between the windows, totally ignoring the fact that both sides of the countertop would slightly overlap the windows. The island is home to the sink and dishwasher, and even includes additional storage under the seating overhang. In this new configuration, the kitchen now offers direct access to the apartment’s entrance. Without the circuitous route around the peninsula, the improved flow immediately makes the space feel larger. Choosing Bilotta’s private label cabinetry in a sleek modern style in a whisper-soft shade of gray (Benjamin Moore’s Balboa Mist) also added to the voluminous feeling of the space. Both the backsplash and countertops are Silestone’s Eternal Calacatta Classic. Photography is by Kelsey Ann Rose.

Circuit pathways and entertaining spaces with low water plants wind around an existing stand of palms to capitalize on the view of the valley by creating a purpose to come out and enjoy the space.

The existing kitchen sink area was repurposed into a vegetable sink due to the larger footprint of the kitchen. The powerful countertop microwave received its own circuit. Sconces were added above each window along with undercabinet lighting for atmosphere. All the cabinets included some sort of rev-a-shelf accessory.

We wired a 400a Service in this custom home. It features all 20a branch circuit wiring, and two detached structures with 125a feeders. One of the challenges in this home is its vaulted ceilings are designed with tongue and groove insets with little to no room for electrical boxes. We opted to use Lithonia Wafer Lights throughout the home.

A one acre backyard was converted from wild grasses and weeds to a family oasis with a dining patio, fire bowl patio, and a walking circuit for exercise and meditation with benches placed for respite to enjoy the view of the valley.
