ABOVE: Maple cabinets and layers of light make the kitchen
functional and versatile. During the day, transom windows
along the cabinet wall flood the space with natural light.
Most days the owner can use the kitchen without turning on
the recessed or pendant lighting. At night, dimmers offer
a variety of options for dramatic effect. The central island
includes a prep sink, and the outer island acts as a serving
space during parties.
LEFT: Rift-cut white oak floors and oak accents on the
ceiling of the living room and entry create warmth in the
contemporary design. Layered light in the entry includes
minimalist pendants and two levels of rectilinear windows.
Muted gray furniture grounds the space and reinforces the
owner's pared-down décor preferences.
