Kevin Mason, ArchitectBOARD & BATTEN BASE CABINETS LOOK LIKE WAINSCOTING to disguise the dishwasher seamlessly. Slab drawer heads run a band around the compact Kitchen, hiding a sponge tray.
Shaker wall cabinets extend downward to meet base cabinets in a roomy pantry.
Ceramic tile backsplash extends to the ceiling and around the window.
Oberholtzer Custom CabinetryBuilt in 1860 we designed this kitchen to have the conveniences of modern life with a sense of having it feel like it could be the original kitchen. White oak with clear coated herringbone oak floor and stained white oak cabinetry deliver the two tone feel.
Castle Building & RemodelingThis growing family was looking for a larger, more functional space to prep their food, cook and entertain in their 1910 NE Minneapolis home.
A new floorplan was created by analyzing the way the homeowners use their home. Their large urban garden provides them with an abundance of fresh produce which can now be harvested, brought in through the back door, and then cleaned in the new Kohler prep sink closest to the back door.
An old, unusable staircase to the basement was removed to capture more square footage for a larger kitchen space and a better planned back entry area. A mudroom with bench/shoe closet was configured at the back door and the Stonepeak Quartzite tile keeps dirt from boots out of the cooking area.
Next in line of function was storage. The refrigerator and pantry areas were moved so they are now across from the prep and cooking areas. New cherry cabinetry in the Waverly door style and floating shelves were provided by Crystal Cabinets.
Finally, the kitchen was opened up to the dining room, creating an eat-in area and designated entertainment area.
A new Richlin vinyl double-hung pocket window replaced the old window on the southwest wall of the mudroom.
The overall style is in line with the style and age of the home. The wood and stain colors were chosen to highlight the rest of the original woodwork in the house. A slight rustic feel was added through a highlight glaze on the cabinets. A natural color palette with muted tones – brown, green and soft white- create a modern fresh feel while paying homage to the character of the home and the homeowners’ earthy style.
COOPER Design BuildThis vibrant, Craftsman-style kitchen features an island with a built-in microwave, Quartz countertops, and a custom subway tile backsplash.
Kitchen Design ConceptsThe builder we partnered with for this beauty original wanted to use his cabinet person (who builds and finishes on site) but the clients advocated for manufactured cabinets - and we agree with them! These homeowners were just wonderful to work with and wanted materials that were a little more "out of the box" than the standard "white kitchen" you see popping up everywhere today - and their dog, who came along to every meeting, agreed to something with longevity, and a good warranty!
The cabinets are from WW Woods, their Eclipse (Frameless, Full Access) line in the Aspen door style
- a shaker with a little detail. The perimeter kitchen and scullery cabinets are a Poplar wood with their Seagull stain finish, and the kitchen island is a Maple wood with their Soft White paint finish. The space itself was a little small, and they loved the cabinetry material, so we even paneled their built in refrigeration units to make the kitchen feel a little bigger. And the open shelving in the scullery acts as the perfect go-to pantry, without having to go through a ton of doors - it's just behind the hood wall!
