来自NKD专家的厨房必备

作为牛顿厨房的老板 & 设计(NKD), Tricia and Pierre Matta understand what it takes to make your kitchen both beautiful and functional for today’s modern lifestyle. 他们最近装修了自己的厨房, here are the “must-have” elements that they can’t live without!

过渡照明

Being able to create an ambiance in your kitchen is essential, according to the Matta’s. 如果你是大艺人, 就像他们一样, then transitional lighting throughout is the key to making a kitchen not feel like just a kitchen. Their island has generous seating and LED backlit countertops under the marble, perfect for dimming the lights and illuminating the island top to set the mood as desired.

一次触碰, you can change the atmosphere or ambiance with this well-planned lighting,皮埃尔说。.

功能存储

Hide-away storage is one of the biggest home trends right now and, 根据Matta的说法, 这在厨房里尤为重要. Tricia emphasized her love for clean and clear countertops throughout the space, which is why they have a massive rectangular shaped island that sits in the middle of the kitchen. It not only has deep storage space and can seat five people comfortably, but also has a built-in wine fridge and steam oven, separate from the Wolf Sub-Zero dual-fuel electric oven with gas top directly behind it. Their kitchen seamlessly transforms from casual cooking for two to evening 娱乐 for many.

Functional storage also gives them the creative opportunity to highlight their favorite items. “I wanted to showcase all of my crystal and stemware so we designed a glass hutch with metal doors and beautiful lighting inside,崔西娅解释道。.

保持传统，非传统

虽然我们都喜欢传统的厨房, the Matta’s say it is important to blur the lines a little. 渴望一种传统主义的感觉, they maintained their separate formal dining room, but Tricia still wanted to find a way to be part of her guests’ conversations while cooking. 有一个现代的, oversized center island solved this issue by doubling as their traditional kitchen table, with ample working and seating capacity to feel all-inclusive when both spaces are filled with family and friends. 

长方形大水槽, 而不是传统的双水槽, was chosen by the Matta’s for ease in clean-up when 娱乐. “You can load everything into one sink instead of trying to fit all into two,“ says Tricia.

说到厨房的布置, the NKD owners chose a non-traditional high gloss finish to reflect the more modern living space nearby.  “因为窗户, it makes the room look bigger and makes the living area look like part of the kitchen,皮埃尔说。. “When reflective, it doesn't read as kitchen cabinetry, it reads more like furniture.” 

The result… a seamless transition of living and working spaces to add to the overall appeal of their beautiful home.

牛顿的厨房 & 设计(NKD) collaborates with many of Boston’s most respected architects, interior designers and builders to create unique spaces and one-of-a-kind pieces for discerning homeowners throughout New England and beyond. To thank their trade partners and to celebrate their upcoming 10-year anniversary, an invitation-only showroom celebration event is planned on Sept 22nd, 与媒体赞助商BDG合作.
