RYE NY - Bold as Brass
This project was an important renovation to an otherwise functional but basic kitchen. The clients, recently arrived from London, wanted a more modern aesthetic to match their tastes. By removing a section of the wall that had created a labyrinth effect, the new layout was a jewel box with optimal traverse that also accessed a view to the outdoors. The clients wanted a continuous, serene space; DEANE hid the appliances with paneled refrigeration and freezer columns, mirrored with a stacked, flush inset Miele beverage station and speed oven. Imperial Danby marble countertops and waterfall edge island are counter-balanced by a backsplash in Dynasty White Italian Carrara marble. The framed, inset cabinets with satin brass pulls and hardware are painted a pale grey for a cool effect and capped off with a customized, architectural 3-piece crown. Hector Finch pendants in antique brass with grey, handblown Murano glass compliment the custom, brushed stainless steel hood, with satin brass and polished nickel rivets.
