materials, designed by Jennifer Gilmer, the featured Biedermeier-based kitchen was,
per se, glamorous and rich in style since Biedermeier flair demonstrates a
classic-modern look in design.
"As the kitchen doubles as a through space, I replaced
the single island with two units to create an easy flow from the entry to the
dining room. At right angles to this, there is a strong central axis from the
dining room entrance to the double-height Palladian window opposite." Gilmer
talked about the detailing of the design.
"We took the graceful curve of the central window as
our inspiration and repeated this in the arc on the alcove that houses the
television, as a decorative element on the hood, and again in a similar design
feature on the rear wall,"
"Because the kitchen gets plenty of light, the cherry
wood cabinetry doesn't look too heavy. Dark beading on most of the door panels
also helps offset the expanses of wood, as do the white countertops on the
islands. However, we chose black granite for the perimeter counters, as more
white surfaces would have detracted from the richness of the Biedermeier
style."
"The work triangles are efficient, and with cabinets on
three walls and more in both islands, this kitchen offers plenty of
storage." she added.
