This kitchen belongs to a lively young family of five (soon to be six) in New Rochelle New York. When meeting the family to discuss the kitchen renovation, the request was simple, yet required careful planning. They wanted a beautiful high end kitchen that would be not only child friendly but one that would give their children the feeling that this is a space for them to use freely. And so the kitchen was designed. All countertops and backsplash, including the sink apron and the kitchen hood, are made out of a Dekton porcelain, a material that is both heat, scratch and stain resistant. Thanks to ever evolving technologies, it not only looks like stone, but feels like it as well. A secret compartment with a pouch magnet on the panel wall contains a three tier step-stool for reaching the upper cabinets while those are equipped with pulldown shelves to utilize all spaces with easy access. The breakfast room table has a custom glass top created to prevent wear and tear of the table while the chairs are made of leather and can easily be wiped off.

While working with this couple on their master bathroom, they asked us to renovate their kitchen which was still in the 70’s and needed a complete demo and upgrade utilizing new modern design and innovative technology and elements. We transformed an indoor grill area with curved design on top to a buffet/serving station with an angled top to mimic the angle of the ceiling. Skylights were incorporated for natural light and the red brick fireplace was changed to split face stacked travertine which continued over the buffet for a dramatic aesthetic. The dated island, cabinetry and appliances were replaced with bark-stained Hickory cabinets, a larger island and state of the art appliances. The sink and faucet were chosen from a source in Chicago and add a contemporary flare to the island. An additional buffet area was added for a tv, bookshelves and additional storage. The pendant light over the kitchen table took some time to find exactly what they were looking for, but we found a light that was minimalist and contemporary to ensure an unobstructed view of their beautiful backyard. The result is a stunning kitchen with improved function, storage, and the WOW they were going for.

Plaza's grand 55 inch wide by 24 inch tall viewing area will be the focal point of your home for years to come. Its barrier glass design replaces traditional barrier screens with an additional piece of glass, creating a clean, edge to edge viewing area. You can easily set your desired flame height and LED under-lighting with the simple to use remote controls. Finish your fireplace with a variety of log and media options that are sure to accentuate any décor. Plaza fireplaces are engineered with unlimited design and installation capabilities for every room. With the innovative heat redistribution system, finishing materials can be brought up to the fireplace opening. This also allows for a TV, artwork, or mantel to be safely installed above the fireplace. Unobstructed views above the fireplace are made possible by its unique venting configuration. The Plaza also utilizes power vent technology, which means greater vent run lengths and the ability to vent down below the fireplace.

ARCHITECTURAL DETAIL + CRAFTSMANSHIP: Award of Excellence PROJECT: DISCRETE HOUSE CLIENT: Dino DeConcini, Elizabeth Murfee, and Keith DeConcini ARCHITECTURE FIRM: FOLAN+TRUMBLE ENGINEERS: Harris Engineering Service; PH Mechanical Engineering; Balda Electrical Consulting CONTRACTORS: Steve Hazen, Ltd. PHOTOGRAPHER: Liam Frederick Photography DESCRIPTION: The DISCRETE HOUSE project involved the adaptive reuse of a territorial adobe mud block structure constructed in the 1930s into a permanent residence for retirement for the clients and the accommodation of their adult, disabled son. Each intervention made was human centered and focused on the orientation/re-orientation in response to the needs of the inhabitants, utilizing a language of detailing and materiality that makes clear the distinction between past and present, as well as the integration of strategically placed sustainable technologies such as water harvesting cisterns and a photovoltaic array. JURY COMMENTS: The masterful attention to details and reoccurring themes make for marvelously simple looking spaces with a very sophisticated richness. How the glass, wood, and metal come together is beautiful. The architect and craftsman worked very well together.
