Kitchen and Dining, Los Angeles, California
This interior design project included
a floor-to-ceiling remodel of the rooms as well as the expansion and
interconnection of existing spaces through the treatment of the dividing wall.
The challenge was to open up the long, narrow kitchen area and integrate
it into the adjacent room. Because the wall
dividing the two areas could not be removed due to structural considerations,
the goal of interconnection of spaces was achieved through a series of
asymmetrical "perforations". A plane of dark green/blue granite creates
a horizontal unifying surface that is used both from the kitchen side
(as counter) and from the dining area (as bar).
The color palette for walls and ceiling is preponderantly cold, to
contrast with the warm of the birch-wood floor and cabinets.
