3. Using the same floor inside and outside will connect them and enlarge both.
In this project we used old -fashioned concrete tiles for the house and garden. We used old tiles which we found in the garden to guard the renovated house against the evil eye….

The owners of a charming home in the hills west of Paso Robles recently decided to remodel their not-so-charming kitchen. Referred to San Luis Kitchen by several of their friends, the homeowners visited our showroom and soon decided we were the best people to design a kitchen fitting the style of their home. We were delighted to get to work on the project right away.
When we arrived at the house, we found a small, cramped and out-dated kitchen. The ceiling was low, the cabinets old fashioned and painted a stark dead white, and the best view in the house was neglected in a seldom-used breakfast nook (sequestered behind the kitchen peninsula). This kitchen was also handicapped by white tile counters with dark grout, odd-sized and cluttered cabinets, and small ‘desk’ tacked on to the side of the oven cabinet. Due to a marked lack of counter space & inadequate storage the homeowner had resorted to keeping her small appliances on a little cart parked in the corner and the garbage was just sitting by the wall in full view of everything! On the plus side, the kitchen opened into a nice dining room and had beautiful saltillo tile floors.
Mrs. Homeowner loves to entertain and often hosts dinner parties for her friends. She enjoys visiting with her guests in the kitchen while putting the finishing touches on the evening’s meal. Sadly, her small kitchen really limited her interactions with her guests – she often felt left out of the mix at her own parties! This savvy homeowner dreamed big – a new kitchen that would accommodate multiple workstations, have space for guests to gather but not be in the way, and maybe a prettier transition from the kitchen to the dining (wine service area or hutch?) – while managing the remodel budget by reusing some of her major appliances and keeping (patching as needed) her existing floors.
Responding to the homeowner’s stated wish list and the opportunities presented by the home's setting and existing architecture, the designers at San Luis Kitchen decided to expand the kitchen into the breakfast nook using Wood-Mode cabinetry. This change allowed the work area to be reoriented to take advantage of the great view – we replaced the existing window and added another while moving the door to gain space. A second sink and set of refrigerator drawers (housing fresh fruits & veggies) were included for the convenience of this mainly vegetarian cook – her prep station. The clean-up area now boasts a farmhouse style single bowl sink – adding to the ‘cottage’ charm. We located a new gas cook-top between the two workstations for easy access from each. Also tucked in here is a pullout trash/recycle cabinet for convenience and additional drawers for storage.
Running parallel to the work counter we added a long butcher-block island with easy-to-access open shelves for the avid cook and seating for friendly guests placed just right to take in the view. A counter-top garage is used to hide excess small appliances. Glass door cabinets and open shelves are now available to display the owners beautiful dishware. The microwave was placed inconspicuously on the end of the island facing the refrigerator – easy access for guests (and extraneous family members) to help themselves to drinks and snacks while staying out of the cook’s way.
We also moved the pantry storage away from the dining room (putting it on the far wall and closer to the work triangle) and added a furniture-like hutch in its place allowing the more formal dining area to flow seamlessly into the up-beat work area of the kitchen. This space is now also home (opposite wall) to an under counter wine refrigerator, a liquor cabinet and pretty glass door wall cabinet for stemware storage – meeting Mr. Homeowner’s desire for a bar service area.
And then the aesthetic: an old-world style country cottage theme. The homeowners wanted the kitchen to have a warm feel while still loving the look of white cabinetry. San Luis Kitchen melded country-casual knotty pine base cabinets with vintage hand-brushed creamy white wall cabinets to create the desired cottage look. We also added bead board and mullioned glass doors for charm, used an inset doorstyle on the cabinets for authenticity, and mixed stone and wood counters to create an eclectic nuance in the space. All in all, the happy homeowners now boast a charming county cottage kitchen with plenty of space for entertaining their guests while creating gourmet meals to feed them.

house and garden in Israel
House and garden in Israel – how to create a connection between them
Here are some ideas.
All of the photos are from projects designed by my office.
1. Think about a good connection between the inside of the house and the garden – this is important for both!
A garden is always better and more useful if it is open to the main living area.
2. Two windows looking out to the garden in different directions are always better than one.
3. Using the same floor inside and outside will connect them and enlarge both.
In this project we used old -fashioned concrete tiles for the house and garden. We used old tiles which we found in the garden to guard the renovated house against the evil eye…..
4. Treat at least part of the garden as you would treat a room inside the house a room wth a floor, ceiling, walls, furniture. This is especially true for gardens in countries like Israel, where gardens can be used almost all the time
5. Even narrow side paths and akward corners can become worthwhile outdoor spaces if you treat them well!
Add benches, plants, beautiful floors and furniture and make them part of your home design.
With the help of beautiful furniture and a large flowerpot, we created a small outdoor "living room" between different levels of the garden:
6. Use flowerpots, sculpures, decorations, lights, in all different hights and shapes and colors, as you would inside – and more!
use beautiful objects, create beautiful compositions.

We chose to spray much of the trim so masked adjacent surfaces carefully - when our work is complete we will also remove existing, hundred year old paint drips visible on some of the roof slate. We chose to spray for efficiency and economy - a spray applied finish will leave behind a more uniform coating - uniform in color coverage as well as paint coating depth - . This approach also saved us time and therefore the owners money.
