A Distinctly Contemporary West Indies 4 BEDROOMS | 4 BATHS | 3 CAR GARAGE | 3,744 SF The Milina is one of John Cannon Home’s most contemporary homes to date, featuring a well-balanced floor plan filled with character, color and light. Oversized wood and gold chandeliers add a touch of glamour, accent pieces are in creamy beige and Cerulean blue. Disappearing glass walls transition the great room to the expansive outdoor entertaining spaces. The Milina’s dining room and contemporary kitchen are warm and congenial. Sited on one side of the home, the master suite with outdoor courtroom shower is a sensual retreat. Gene Pollux Photography

The owners, inspired by mid-century modern architecture, hired Klopf Architecture to design an Eichler-inspired 21st-Century, energy efficient new home that would replace a dilapidated 1940s home. The home follows the gentle slope of the hillside while the overarching post-and-beam roof above provides an unchanging datum line. The changing moods of nature animate the house because of views through large glass walls at nearly every vantage point. Every square foot of the house remains close to the ground creating and adding to the sense of connection with nature.

Our clients came to us wanting to update their kitchen while keeping their traditional and timeless style. They desired to open up the kitchen to the dining room and to widen doorways to make the kitchen feel less closed off from the rest of the home. They wanted to create more functional storage and working space at the island. Other goals were to replace the sliding doors to the back deck, add mudroom storage and update lighting for a brighter, cleaner look. We created a kitchen and dining space that brings our homeowners joy to cook, dine and spend time together in. We installed a longer, more functional island with barstool seating in the kitchen. We added pantry cabinets with roll out shelves. We widened the doorways and opened up the wall between the kitchen and dining room. We added cabinetry with glass display doors in the kitchen and also the dining room. We updated the lighting and replaced sliding doors to the back deck. In the mudroom, we added closed storage and a built-in bench.
