An English-country kitchen, softened for California light — a cobalt range, unlacquered brass, and a William Morris print climbing the walls.
A ground-up reimagining of an Orange County kitchen — equal parts working room and gathering place. We drew from English country houses and tuned them to California light: a French cooking range in cobalt and brass anchoring the space, hand-glazed tile, and a William Morris print running wall to wall.
Marble carries the length of the island. Walnut shelving holds the collected, lived-in things — Sicilian ceramics, cookbooks, a trailing plant — so a brand-new kitchen never reads as new. Brass was left unlacquered, free to patina with use.


We wanted a kitchen that looked like it had always been here — only better.5blox Interior Design
