Inspired by a love for entertaining, we transformed a Family kitchen into a space brimming with color and delight. Designed for a passion for parties, the new kitchen pairs modern sensibility with vintage charm, dolled up with layers of style and whimsy. We organized with functional work stations, with style top of mind.

Stunning marble tile feature wall soars behind the cooktop, visible from the dining room and defining the space with elegance. The Dessert Bar is the star of the show: wrapped in peacock lacquer with bejeweled gold hardware. Beveled mirror backdrop reflects tiers of confections, while handblown pink glass chiffon ceiling light sets a celebratory tone. Upper cabinets showcase the vintage barware collection.

A sweet retreat, the Breakfast Room with a custom banquette, is enameled the color of a berry tart. Overhead, a turquoise beaded chandelier is fanciful.  like a dollop of whipped cream. Every element, from the palette to the finishes, is finished with a touch of humor, like sprinkles on a cake. We designed the space to feel joyful with a sense of celebration.
