“ Organizing the kitchen is a central island anchored by an enclosed volume concealing a
powder room .
ARCHITECTURAL FOCUS abound , and a coat closet was also added with a similar filleted corner that reflects daylight and opens up the adjacent built-in dining area . The sinuous lines continue under the stone island counter , which is meticulously detailed with white oak slats that flow gracefully around the recess that permits leg room for stools . Storage cabinets and drawers are also concealed behind the slats .
Oak is also used across the main kitchen service wall , running floor to ceiling and extending behind the powder room to form a coffee bar . Flush handles for the generous cabinets and pantries are subtly curved , again beautifully detailed by our long-time millwork collaborator , Kastella . Together with the porcelain tile flooring , white walls and large expanses of glass , the result is a bright , minimal , and contemporary space that ’ s highly functional for the users .
Downstairs is a granny suite with a living area , bedroom , bathroom , and small kitchen , as well as service areas — all of which were refreshed as part of the project scope . On the upper level , the primary suite at the back of the house was rejigged to create dual closets on either side of the bathroom entrance , through which more oak slats were installed along a new central axis across the ceiling . Two further bedrooms at the front and the main bathroom remained as found , with light cosmetic updates .
