This award-winning and intimate cottage was rebuilt on the site of a deteriorating outbuilding. Doubling as a custom jewelry studio and guest retreat, the cottage’s timeless design was inspired by old National Parks rough-stone shelters that the owners had fallen in love with. A single living space boasts custom built-ins for jewelry work, a Murphy bed for overnight guests, and a stone fireplace for warmth and relaxation. A cozy loft nestles behind rustic timber trusses above. Expansive sliding glass doors open to an outdoor living terrace overlooking a serene wooded meadow. Photos by: Emily Minton Redfield

Knotty Alder cabinets provide a functional workspace with African Fantasy granite countertops providing aesthetic appeal. A simulated fireplace mantle hides the exhaust hood which is outfitted with a sound-deadening dampener provided by Fantech of Lenexa, Kansas. Push activated sections on the mantle hide lighting controls and duplex outlets. Cabinets at the end of the kitchen provide his and her hanging space.

The owner has a distinct desire for something different and unusual which is reflected in both the overall design and the exotic granite that was picked for the countertops. The movement in the granite was carefully selected so that it gave the appearance that the individual islands flowed from one to another. The colors of the inset backsplash were carefully selected to coordinate with the colors found in the countertops. All lighting controls are hidden either in the bottom of the cabinets or in the mantle corbels which conveniently swing open for their use.
