Traditional with an eclectic twist, this historic Queen Anne home is highly personalized without losing its roots. Full of pops of teal and red amidst a background of textured neutrals, this home is a careful balance of warm grays and blacks set against bright whites, color and natural woods. Designed with kids in mind, this home is both beautiful and durable -- a highly curated space ready to stand the test of time.

The owner of this distinguished Somerville late Victorian wanted not just a new kitchen, but a more efficient and healthier house overall. The challenge wasn’t just to capture the light and view towards the Boston skyline; we also needed to improve the space plan and work flow. Overlaid on those goals, we needed to respect the carefully maintained Victorian character of the rest of the home and bring that sensibility back into the kitchen space.
OPENING THE SPACE
We removed the wall that isolated the sink space to create one unified kitchen area. We relocated the sink to a center island so that we could replace the small window with a large sliding glass door out onto the deck and the view of the skyline.
REPURPOSING MATERIALS
We salvaged and re-used the honey-colored southern yellow pine wainscoting; we matched and extended it to a window seat and laundry room door to create continuity and tie those new elements to the old. The cabinets and counters have traditional styling in light colors to reflect the light from the new sliding doors deep into the space. More light from the rear utility stairs is brought into the space by means of a frosted glass door.
IMPROVING EFFICIENCY
More prosaically, but just as important to the client and the project team, we upgraded the insulation and air-sealing throughout the house to improve the home’s comfort and efficiency.
