Designer Dvira Ovadia www . dvira . com We designed a modern and refined kitchen that includes elements of warmth by introducing timeless walnut accents throughout the kitchen combined with crisp white tones . The fridge wall stands out with its custom ribbed wall that coordinates with the upper section of drawers along the perimeter of the kitchen . The stainless-steel hood with polished nickel banding is a focal piece in this kitchen , adding an industrial charm , while the polished nickel fixtures , faucets , hardware and inset drawer trims tie in seamlessly , creating a fresh use of metals . The beautiful natural stone countertops waterfall around the island and wrap the perimeter along with the backsplash to achieve a sophisticated look . The pantry tucked in behind the kitchen provides ample storage and a long run of counterspace for all those small appliances . The finishes of the pantry impeccably mimic the look of the kitchen to create a harmonious flow for this attractive and functional everyday space .
The building was converted from a warehouse to residential lofts over 20 years ago and the kitchen had not been updated since ; it was in need of a refresh and something that was more in line with the aesthetic we ’ ve leaned into . Our goal for the entire loft was a calming space supported with a variety of neutral tones and we used that as our North Star when making design choices . The idea was to go all white for the kitchen renovation but in a variety of shades to add depth and various points of interest . White and black appliances and high gloss cupboards with hidden handles offer a more minimalist effect . White quartz countertops and the off-white vertical kit-kat style tiles draw your eye upwards to the 25 foot ceilings , ultimately elongating the space further . The grout is also a warm gray to work cohesively with the oak flooring and beige furniture . We finished the space with warm wood accents and added a vintage element with a Smeg kettle and toaster . For our appliances it was important that the aesthetics were on point and that the functionality was top-notch . The Samsung Bespoke series had to hit all the marks . - Chloe Wilde and Ben Johnston , www . instagram . com / thechloewilde
