BEFORE & AFTER
Cool, Calm and Collected Spaces
A streamlined kitchen and a more open bathroom feature improved storage and modern style
THE OWNERS OF THIS two-level Chapel Hill,
N.C., home decided the early-2000s French
country style of the interior was feeling dated
and needed a major refresh. Designer Jennifer
Hutton, creative director and principal designer
of Grau Design Studio, worked with the
homeowners to create more modern spaces with
sustainable design elements and the latest technology
for easy living.
MIX OF OLD AND NEW
In the kitchen, the homeowners wanted to incorporate
their existing dishwasher, range and
refrigerator into the updated design, so Hutton
realized she needed to rethink the placement
of the appliances. Relocating the range to an

opposite wall improved fl ow and workspace, but
structural issues with the kitchen also needed
to be addressed. Two walls that separated the
kitchen and dining room were removed to create
a large, open-concept layout that allows for
more movement throughout the now connected
spaces. Th ere was also a black pipe next to the
chimney of a fi replace anchored to the kitchen's
new island that is a critical component to the
room's stability.
" We weren't sure how to address this, but when
the client said she liked a more 'industrial' vibe,
we left it exactly how it was, " said Hutton. " We
also decided to swap the location of the fi rebox,
so making sure the chimney was adequately supported
on the other side was no small feat. "
ABOVE The existing red oak
wood fl oor that was patched
and refi nished adds warmth
to the now light and bright
kitchen with better fl ow and
function.
