Injecting this “thirty something” builder home with architectural detail was foremost in the mind of designer Renee Dion, ASID. Wider door casings with substantial headers, wainscoting and columns, new interior doors with sparkling door knobs, and replacement skylight added the architectural interest befitting the handsome style of this homeowner. Next was consultation with Deb Bayless, CKD, CBD to update the heavy cherry kitchen. Inset, raised panel cabinetry in a custom white enamel, existing black Jennair refrigerator and fabulous range by LeCornue transform the first floor into a bright and lovely space in which to gather. The homeowner’s love of fabric (a girl after my own heart!) and detailed hutch with glass doors, provide just the right amount of color to the room. The microwave and coffeemaker are hidden behind pocket doors, and island simply adorned. Elegant and handsome.
