Example of a classic kitchen design in Boston

This 400 s.f. studio apartment in NYC’s Greenwich Village serves as a pied-a-terre for clients whose primary residence is on the West Coast. Although the clients do not reside here full-time, this tiny space accommodates all the creature comforts of home. The kitchenette combines custom cool grey lacquered cabinets with brass fittings, white beveled subway tile, and a warm brushed brass backsplash; an antique Boucherouite runner and textural woven stools that pull up to the kitchen’s coffee counter punctuate the clean palette with warmth and the human scale. The under-counter freezer and refrigerator, along with the 18” dishwasher, are all panelled to match the cabinets, and open shelving to the ceiling maximizes the feeling of the space’s volume. The entry closet doubles as home for a combination washer/dryer unit. The custom bathroom vanity, with open brass legs sitting against floor-to-ceiling marble subway tile, boasts a honed gray marble countertop, with an undermount sink offset to maximize precious counter space and highlight a pendant light. A tall narrow cabinet combines closed and open storage, and a recessed mirrored medicine cabinet conceals additional necessaries. The stand-up shower is kept minimal, with simple white beveled subway tile and frameless glass doors, and is large enough to host a teak and stainless bench for comfort; black sink and bath fittings ground the otherwise light palette. What had been a generic studio apartment became a rich landscape for living.

This stunning two-story condo in Silo Point was designed by Marci Lief and completely renovated by Greenleaf craftsmen. The kitchen features custom cabinetry with a bar area, retractable outlets and hood, custom metal shelving, and quartz countertops and backsplash. New lighting includes recessed lights with square trim and sleek Sonneman hanging fixtures. The primary bath was reconfigured to create a large walk-in steam shower with digital Kohler control system, rain head, floating teak bench, and custom linen cabinet with vanity. Lief worked closely with the client to furnish and decorate the condo creating a contemporary masterpiece.

A luxury kitchen defined by a ribbed quartzite island, bespoke white oak cabinetry, and brushed brass hardware. Natural stone surfaces were digitally mapped for continuous veining, while a glass partition connects the space to the family room — open yet distinct.

This craftsman kitchen borrows natural elements from architect and design icon, Frank Lloyd Wright. A slate backsplash, soapstone counters, and wood cabinetry is a perfect throwback to midcentury design.
