Project Details Designer: Amy Van Wie Cabinetry: Brookhaven II – Framed Inset Cabinetry Wood: Perimeter and Island are Painted Maple; the Hutch is Distressed Pine Finish: Alpine White, Black with espresso glaze and the Hutch is Vintage Putty and Hazel on Distressed Pine Door: Lewisburg Recessed Countertop: Soap Stone Awards 2015 NKBA Design Award, Best New Kitchen 150SF+ This was such a fun project. Our clients were razor focused on all the details, which of course, as a designer, I loved! We decided to expand the finish palette from the traditional one or two to three: alpine white on the perimeter, black with espresso glaze for the island and vintage putty and hazel for the hutch area. We wanted to differentiate the hutch from the rest of the kitchen but still make it part of a unified whole. The third finish kept the area distinct and the matching door style kept it integrated. The symmetrical balance gives the kitchen a sophistication which reflects the owners perfectly. The Kohler Whitehaven farm sink, backsplash and hardware introduce the rustic elements reflective of the rest of the home and its bucolic setting.

This project is in the final stages. The basement is finished with a den, bedroom, full bathroom and spacious laundry room. New living spaces have been created upstairs. The kitchen has come alive with white cabinets, new countertops, a farm sink and a brick backsplash. The mudroom was incorporated at the garage entrance with a storage bench and beadboard accents. Industrial and vintage lighting, a barn door, a mantle with restored wood and metal cabinet inlays all add to the charm of the farm house remodel. DREAM. BUILD. LIVE. www.smartconstructionhomes.com
