Keep It Real
In this renovated home the owners were mindful of its humble history and wanted to maintain its timeworn character throughout, especially in the cozy but airy kitchen.
The original wood floors and plank walls and ceiling set the stage for simple elements - open shelves - simple and boxy - above the countertops and along one wall. One of the owners built the shelves himself in a matter of days.
Colour in the Lines
The room's modest character calls for subtlety, so the owners turned to paint hues that reflected historical overtures.
Take a Seat
You don't need a wide expanse to create a perch with a bird's-eye view. Two window seats look down on the garden below. The seats aren't wide enough for long lounging sessions, but slender seat cushions and fabric shades on the windows add softness to the woodwork.
