Gonna Have a Good Day

Our goal for this “California casual” home in rural Westchester was to mix classic and contemporary in a single space, so we designed the oak planked section as a distinct “core” of the house, which flowed organically into the kitchen and pantry. We also wanted to give the kitchen a little farmhouse appeal without being “farmhouse” y. And although the home is very spacious, the kitchen is not enormous, so our final challenge was to customize all the storage in every cabinet for this busy family of four to maximize every inch.
