The design story
Personal by design.
Soft painted cabinetry and warm wood give this design its English cottage feeling. Simple inset doors, aged brass details, and a furniture-like island create a room that feels collected and inviting. The design explores a balance of light cabinetry, stained oak, and gently contrasting color.
- The character
- Flush inset doors with simple rails and stiles.
- The warmth
- Stained quartersawn white oak gives the island a furniture-like presence.
- The detail
- Aged brass and light surfaces bring a gentle contrast.
