Authentic Old-Portland

Designing for a preservationist and an architecturally significant home requires a delicate balance of new and old. To visually separate the kitchen and breakfast nook, we kept the original crown molding enhanced by a soffit. We also custom-stained the cabinets at the sink to give the room a furniture look. A custom stainless hood, professional Viking range and SubZero refrigerator bring the kitchen into the now while architecturally correct pendant lighting reference the early 1900's. Concrete countertops along with hand-made custom tile complete the look.
