White Oak cabinets are a mainstay in many modern and contemporary homes. But this project riffs on the popular design in a new and refreshing way. A rich Bourbon stain, wire mesh cabinet door panels, and polished brass fixtures give this remodeled kitchen a refined and original look that’s not like the neighbors.
The warm, expressive character of the oak creates a strong foundation for the space that makes it feel like home. One of the kitchen’s most distinctive details is the use of wire mesh in select cabinet doors. The translucent panels break up the expanse of wood while offering a glimpse of what’s inside, adding a subtle layer of texture and visual interest.
Paired with the polished brass hardware and and carefully selected finishes, these details give the kitchen a refined, almost furniture-like quality. That’s especially apparent in the distinctly shaped kitchen island, designed to perfectly fit the space.

Inspired by our travels to Europe, we often referred to this style as Moody Mediterranean. We used warm wood tones, sand-colored tiles, and Dekton countertops, a strong man-made solid surface material that mimics travertine.

This home was originally designed by a contemporary of Frank Lloyd Wright, Russell Barr Williamson. To stay true to Wright's design principles, open living spaces that flow together needed to be created. Astute space planning that included existing structural elements was essential to ensure a functional kitchen and entertainment area. The existing barriers were diminished by removing walls. Design of the kitchen (and beyond) needed to respect the style of the home and existing finishes. Following Wright's lead: fire became the "heart of home" by adding a fireplace. Pecky cypress and Lannon stone were repeated, and strong horizontal lines of stained walnut cabinetry were crafted. The herringbone pattern of the floor tile echoed the pattern of the existing flooring and angles of the floorplan.
