This second home was built as a gathering place for family get-together, holidays and weekends. The homeowners worked with Gegg Design & Cabinetry to design their dream kitchen, which was to be simple and reflective of the classic architecture for a refined farmhouse feel. Classic materials were selected including the white painted galley cabinets, walnut hood with black steel strap details and an island with a custom green paint finish and natural oiled walnut top. Since the kitchen is not used for daily living, large amounts of storage were not necessary.

1. Bold and Blue, by Archer & Buchanan Architecture, Ltd. From the start of the project, this blue butler’s pantry was intended to be a small moment of great intensity, creating a sharp contrast to the pale palette of the balance of the house.
