The kitchen was conceived as a "pod" that subtly separates the living and dining areas. The pendant light over the Carrara marble island is by Archier.
A wall of glazing across from the kitchen pod connects to a centrally located courtyard, with landscaping by Eckersley Garden Architecture.
Extensive glazing provides ample natural light and panoramic views of the surrounding scenery.
The new kitchen-living area is spanned by a 25-foot steel beam.
Simple wood and brick contrast the industrial character of the concrete and steel, while also serving as sound dampeners.
The living spaces on the ground floor now consist of exposed steelwork with polished concrete, timber surfaces, and large Crittall windows.
