Soup to Nuts, a whole house story

When my client called to say they had moved to a new home I was happy for her. Seeing the new house she explained that they had hired an Residential Designer (Steven Kubitschek ) and a contractor (Walter Wehrli) to gut and redo the home. So we were off to the races with the first start being cabinet layout, countertop choices and backsplash design. We used Wolf and Subzero appliances and Fireclay Tile, recycled glass. Then a color palette was created for inside and out using a lot of white paint to keep it light but some intense pigments in certain areas for contrast. Tile layouts/elevations were drawn up as well as selecting faucets, sinks and shower systems. Hardwood flooring was chosen and slate in Earth was added. Many meeting later and here we are !

Love and the Wolf Range

Just finished, unique kitchen. Clients had some fabulous ideas when I met them, almost a year ago     ( beautiful things take time) The cook, he wanted the incredible Wolf range and Subzero glass door frig. I didn't need to talk him into that. He also wanted brick with pot racks behind. I thought I'd died and went to heaven !  I did pick out door style, color and of course the cabinet lay out. Notice the 2 1/2 " thick black granite, it really makes the tops solid and rugged. That goes with the brick and out of this world appliances. All new porcelain tile floors in herringbone pattern.
