Kon-Strux explained that their clients wanted a total refresh on what was a dated, unevenly lit, and cluttered kitchen space. They noted that the family loves New York and the robust feeling of infrastructural history in older American cities, and therefore wanted to bring this into their home design. Kon-Strux noted that they started with an incredible large structural steel beam which grounds the main floor and acts as an upper gateway to the kitchen. They paired Edison bulbs with inset LED lighting to create layers of light in various temperatures. Everything about this kitchen is now "WOW".

My House Design/Build Team explained that these homeowners were a vibrant, young family with children that live a very active lifestyle and value family time together. The family expressed that they wanted the kitchen to be heart of the home, where family spends much of their time together day-in and day-out. My House Design/Build Team said that these clients love their family-oriented kitchen and noted that the kitchen now brings everyone together. They added that by reconfiguring kitchen layout and opening up the exterior wall to new outdoor-space achieved amazing results.

Thse clients came to me for a kitchen refresh. Keeping the existing floor plan but updating as much as possible. After explaining my thoughts, they chose to go with a much larger project. The wall to the garage wash pushed bach 12" to allow for the island to happen. This almost couldn't happen as there is a support post in the garage we had to keep. I designed the last pantry area as on 10" deep, allowing us to conceal that behind the cabinets. Then, we opend up the wall to the dining room to make the rooms one large space. The wall to the family room was also openend up, leaving the half wall to allow for the kitchen eating area. They wanted to incorporate a bar area, without it feeling like a "bar" The fabulous tall custom unit houses their wine collection and then half of the dining room buffet area holds glassware and other bar items. I helped the clients with all of the design choices.We all wanted to keep the space classic, war, functional and with mixed materials. I chose to use the same countertop material for the backsplash, to keep the space feeling as large as possible.

“Some of the design challenges included working with a landscape that included many fully mature trees and spaces that transition from full shade to full sun. Another design challenge was making a spacious yard feel more intimate,” explained Van Elders.

“The kitchen design gave the space a custom finished look that satisfied our clients wish for a clean space,'' explained Pitt. For the refrigerator, which is opposite the range, a cabinetry space was added above and finished off the side with a custom panel. There was 18” to play with to the right of the fridge so we added a tall 2-door pantry with electrical inside.

After struggling to find the right contractor to build their pool deck these clients met with us and explained what their ideal deck would look like. We guided them through our design process and came up with a plan to build their dream deck. We coordinated with building inspection, utility companies and the pool installer to insure everything would go smoothly. We stated construction and were able to complete the project in just 3 weeks. The clients are now enjoying the deck with their kids and grandkids.

The new kitchen has a repositioned cooktop and vent hood refinished floors and dark cabinets along with more storage space. “Both homeowners were great collaborators to work with,” recalls Mann, who remembers their response to the question of a color pallet during the design phase. “She said she really liked black and white, so we went with a pre-finished ebony shade on the cabinets in the kitchen, and color-matched to that on the fireplace shelves surround, the windows, and the new office door,” explained Mann.
