kitchens GET COOKING! Draw inspiration from these stylish kitchens WRITTEN BY CINDY SCHWEICH HANDLER M ost of us live in our kitchens — that is, we enter- tain, hang out, study, eat and (oh yes) cook in them and we want them to reflect our tastes. These three area kitchens are all beautiful in ways that are as different as their inhabitants. PERIOD PIECE This South Orange kitchen is located in a historic preservation area, and, coincidentally or not, the décor is consistent with a desire to preserve an aesthetic associated with a particular point in time. The period style complements the property’s architecture and is called Old English Kitchen by its designers at Küche+Cucina. Their handcrafted cabinetry is painted; and has a glaze finish. The Cashmere Go ld granite countertop’s warm tone lends old-fashioned charm, while the Fisher & Paykel dishwasher, ample Wolf range and microwave, Sub-Zero refrigerator and Rohl sink and faucet provide up-to-date convenience and efficiency. The Miele coffee machine and warming drawer are the proverbial icing on the cake. > MILLBURN & SHORT HILLS MAGAZINE FALL 2018 27
