This kitchen, along with its adjacent spaces, are the end result of uncovering multiple layers of previous cumbersome and complicated remodels, and tying the entire house together through a common theme of material use and color scheme. The newly created interiors is truly a diamond in the rough - an oasis of modern design within the context of modest builder-style houses in North Boulder. The kitchen’s main feature, the island, immediately invites both homeowner and guest to be engaged in the space, providing a flexible gathering point that can be both formal and informal and is a functional work space forcooking preparation. The island is simple in form, and its drama and relationship to the open space is emphasized by its thick 12cm turned-down countertop and rectalinear shape.
