This kitchen has a traditional feel with its white cabinets and butcher block island, but elements like the honed cement counter tops and stainless steel appliances add a contemporary twist. Architect Jeff Broadhurst Photo by Hoachlander Davis Photography

Calacatta marble slab creates a stunning focal point behind the Thermador gas range. The large arch and smaller niches were re-created by templating existing arches in this beautiful historic home. Beams mimic hand hewn beams found in the entry. The cabinet bracket shape was copied from the original cabinets. The unique light above the sink used to be in the butler's pantry.
