Six rooms below, each rebuilt around the life already happening in it.
R. & L. Aoun’s kitchen was closed off from the rest of the house. They wanted one room where cooking, homework, and Sunday lunch could all happen at once.
We opened the wall to the dining room, ran a single eleven-foot island in rift-sawn oak down the centre, and let the cabinetry disappear into the walls.
They understood the life we wanted before we could describe it — the result is more us than we imagined possible.
