This recent remodel was a full gut down to the stubs and sub floors. The biggest challenge in the space was creating a single room from 2 separate areas. The original galley kitchen and a 1980’s add-on breakfast room. The breakfast room was cold and had old mechanicals emphasizing the need for a continuous space. The existing kitchen area was small, cramped and did not fit the lifestyle of the homeowners. The homeowners wanted a hidden pantry for large and seasonal items as well as for food storage. I planned for a portion of the garage to be transformed to a full size, walk-in, hidden pantry that catered to the needs of the family. Three of the most important design features include the hidden pantry, “other room” storage such as the mudroom seat and window bench, as well as the eat-in counter. Other notable design elements include glass cabinets, under-cabinet lighting, a message center and built-in under the counter appliances. The coffee system is plumbed allowing for immediate hot coffee and specialty drinks at the touch of a button. Dimensions: 27’X12’ Cabinetry: KEMPER Flooring: MAPLE HARDWOOD with Radiant floor heat.

Natural wood tones and black accents turn this kitchen from passe to fabulous, even though much of the footprint was left intact. A 48" Thermador Range centralizes the cooking underneath a striking black hood with a wood band. Spice and utensil drawers on either side enhance organization for the cook. A backsplash in white, made of handmade clay tile, is a bright backdrop to this stunning focal point. Opposite the island, black upper cabinets with glass panels create another focal point while offering an extra counter for work space. Just beyond, a large pantry space which leads from the garage to the kitchen contains additional cabinetry, including 2 extra large pull outs for jumbo dog food bags, making it a breeze to feed the family's 3 extra large dogs. Back in the kitchen,the refrigerator wall is refashioned to include two- 30" fridge/freezer columns with a beverage center in between for cold drinks and coffee. Nearby, the butler pantry is converted to a splendid wine station.

The rift cut oak was carried into the entertainment bar and used to front the twin Sub Zero wine columns which frame the floating shelves and statuary marble backsplash. Nano glass was used for the countertops for enhanced durability. The overall effect is clean, light and white while still remaining warm and welcoming in a timeless fashion.

Example of a large transitional u-shaped limestone floor and gray floor eat-in kitchen design with a farmhouse sink, shaker cabinets, brown cabinets, marble countertops, metallic backsplash, marble backsplash, stainless steel appliances, an island and white countertops

This modern shower and bathroom wall system is 100% waterproof but yet has ZERO grout joints (because these are laminate wall panels). Very sleek, yet simple to install.

Large kitchen with Oak cabinetry to the ceiling. Eyebrow arched doors match the interior doors throughout. Quartz countertops match the porcelain tile floor. Room for barstools at the island and is open to the Great Room and Dining.

We overhauled a chaotic and cramped kitchen of a top-floor condo in Brookline by re-working the cooking area, entry hall, and surrounding closets to create an open-concept plan that isn’t cut off from the home’s other spaces. By removing a few feet from kitchen closets that were deeper than they were useful and a disproportionately oversized entry hall, we brought the kitchen an additional two feet and significantly improved the over all functionality. We also incorporated a number of space-saving solutions, like choosing a range top that allowed for storage of pots and pans underneath. Putting the microwave in the pantry keeps the counters clear, and additional refrigerated Sub-Zero drawers make it easy for kids to reach for drinks and snacks. Photos by Patrick O'Malley

The light filled, step down family room has a custom, vaulted tray ceiling and double sets of French doors with aged bronze hardware leading to the patio. Tucked away in what looks like a closet, the built-in home bar has Sub-Zero drink drawers. The gorgeous Rumford double-sided fireplace (the other side is outside on the covered patio) has a custom-made plaster moulding surround with a beige herringbone tile insert.
