This 1950's kitchen hindered our client's cooking and bi-weekly entertaining and was inconsistent with the home's mid-century architecture. Additional key goals were to improve function for cooking and entertaining 6 to 12 people on a regular basis. Originally with only two entry points to the kitchen (from the entry/foyer and from the dining room) the kitchen wasn’t very open to the remainder of the home, or the living room at all. The door to the carport was never used and created a conflict with seating in the breakfast area. The new plans created larger openings to both rooms, and a third entry point directly into the living room. The “peninsula” manages the sight line between the kitchen and a large, brick fireplace while still creating an “island” effect in the kitchen and allowing seating on both sides. The television was also a “must have” utilizing it to watch cooking shows while prepping food, for news while getting ready for the day, and for background when entertaining. Meticulously designed cabinets provide ample storage and ergonomically friendly appliance placement. Cabinets were previously laid out into two L-shaped spaces. On the “top” was the cooking area with a narrow pantry (read: scarce storage) and a water heater in the corner. On the “bottom” was a single 36” refrigerator/freezer, and sink. A peninsula separated the kitchen and breakfast room, truncating the entire space. We have now a clearly defined cool storage space spanning 60” width (over 150% more storage) and have separated the ovens and cooking surface to spread out prep/clean zones. True pantry storage was added, and a massive “peninsula” keeps seating for up to 6 comfortably, while still expanding the kitchen and gaining storage. The newly designed, oversized peninsula provides plentiful space for prepping and entertaining. Walnut paneling wraps the room making the kitchen a stunning showpiece.

Old, closed off kitchen is incorporated into the rest of the house by removing the wall that separated the kitchen and dining space and constructing a breakfast bar.

custom cabinetry with gold hardware contrasts with the smooth slate flooring, the black countertops, and black finish faucet; grounding the design. The warm wood colors throughout the design give the space an inviting and comfortable feel.

We opened up the wall between kitchen and dining area, replaced an exterior door with the full height windows, and moved the basement stair to give more space and better flow to this new kitchen.

The thoroughfare through the kitchen from the hallway to the eating and living area is the go to place for school notices, current events, greeting cards, reminders, bills and drawing materials. Each member of the household has their own cork board. The blackboard through the doorway serves as the weekly menu board with suggestions put forward weekly by hopeful tummies!

Remodeled galley kitchen in Mt. Airy, PA. Stacked shaker style honey colored cabinetry with mosaic glass tile backsplash. We stacked the wall cabinets to utilize the room height for additional storage.

Detail of the built in shelves in the space once occupied by a sliding door into the front parlour (now my studio). We love midcentury teacups, kitchen canisters and paper ephemera. Colour makes me happy :) Photos: khansenphotography.com/
