Kitchen: Warmth and Texture

Client Objectives:

  • Update appliances and surfaces
  • Improve traffic flow
  • Brighten the room

Our Approach:

The new layout of cabinetry and eating space was designed for the lifestyle of this active family. In the original flow, one had to pass through the living room and dining room, then cross the hall to reach the kitchen! The addition of a door offers the family easier access to the kitchen from the front of the house.

The palette of the kitchen was chosen to relate to the colors found on the original fireplace tiles.

Client Quote:

"Every time we walk into our beautiful kitchen we're thankful that we met Jann! She offers something you don't find everywhere - inspiration. We told her we wanted a 'warm and inviting kitchen'. From that, she created this richly inviting room by coordinating colors and materials that related to our home's history, our heritage, and how we live. Plus, throughout the process, she was responsive, organized, and direct, yet always friendly and easy to talk to. We sincerely appreciate the wonderful job she did for us."

Fireplace tile detail

We took the color palette for the kitchen from the home's 1920's ceramic fireplace tiles.

New Kitchen doorway

One of the most effective changes we made was installing this pocket door!  Now one can enter the kitchen from the front door - and the space feels so much larger!
