Fairmount Open Kitchen

By removing the existing wall between the kitchen, dining and family room, new lines of sight were made possible, making it easier to keep track of their newly mobile toddler. Including a carefully considered peninsula between the kitchen and dining room, created a new center for the family's first level and a vantage point for their little one to be included in meal time preparations. Simple, though carefully considered, design decisions were paired with unique tactile moments. The lower cabinets, set in a deep navy, anchor the pragmatic storage elements while white upper cabinets, paired with natural wood open shelving, keep the room feeling light, spacious and offer moments to showcase meaningful cookware and plants. Dark, soapstone colored countertops add to the drama throughout the kitchen, while hand glazed wall tiles bring personality, tactility, and unity to the new kitchen palette.
