Tuckahoe Renovation

When our clients moved to the area, they dreamed of a welcoming kitchen that would be the heart of their new home. They sought an inspiring light-filled space that would open up the existing floor plan, where they could cook family meals and feel connected to their garden. Details honor Italian and Latin American tradition, including a handmade Talavera tile backsplash, displays of inherited pottery and framed family recipes on a built-in bookcase that was designed to house an ever-growing collection of cookbooks. The expansive butcher block island, modern appliances, and timeless design meet the needs of these enthusiastic home cooks and parents who are nurturing the next generation.
