Before Pictures
Complete renovation of a 1930's classical townhouse kitchen in New York City's Upper East Side. Reflecting the Owners' desire to have more hygienic materials and an efficient layout, it uses stainless steel on the counters and lower cabinets, an island with a quartz top and porcelain floor tiles. The sleek materials and appliances influenced the choice of an Art Moderne aesthetic grounding the room in its 1930's context, which was an important consideration for the Owners.
