Park City, Utah Project 2022
A kitchen from the heart of a Rustic-Modern styled project, is the heart beat of this home. During the original design visit to this home, this kitchen was pink, purple and yellow, with a wall where the island is now. By removing the wall and allowing the island to push past the edge of the dropped down ceiling, it created this space to feel bigger and more welcoming. Pushing the island past the ceiling line, is an off-set in this kitchen. A space often feels happier when it works in odds (or in off-sets); ie; 3 pendants, 5 stools, and an island that doesn't end exactly with the ceiling. The choice of a golden-copper granite countertop was a scary step for this client. Originally he had requested something black. By using the golden-copper push of this granite, lifts this kitchen, and helps it to feel inspired and hopeful. The back countertop is a copper porcelain slab, which married seamlessly together with the golden-copper granite. The stone fireplace, cowhides and leather sofa makes this home a home.
