Pops of Color
Patterned fabrics in a vibrant ginger red enliven the white palette (and also coordinate with the Wolf range's knobs!), while two large-scale lanterns in a verdigris finish grab attention over the island.

Scene-Stealer Accent
Because of the hood's central location in the kitchen, Allison and Erika wanted it to be a focal point. The cabinetmaker built the handsome white wood hood, adding custom metal straps.

Functional Layout
A new U-shaped plan allowed the appliances to be repositioned, with the refrigerator now on an end wall. Newly added windows flanking the range flood the room with natural light.
