In the kitchen, White Oak floors, inset walnut cabinets, Fireclay subway tile, and Caesartone countertops read more classic vibes, while the furnishings—such as the Reno Table from Structube, Channel Chairs by Industry West, and ADAM Stools by Frama Denmark—are modern counterpoints.

"I wanted to have a kitchen that could be a central gathering point of our home for years to come where our family could gather to cook together and eat together."
