Arches and layers
In this kitchen in Osterville, MA we used layers of detail and arches within arches to organize the very large space and give it structure. White painted cabinets with beaded inset doors and oil rubbed bronze hardware surround the natural cherry prep island which also acts as a back bar for the freestanding arch and cherry bar top that define the kitchen from the open dining area.
Classical designs are created out of a rich ready-made lexicon of architectural elements: capitals, corbels, buttresses, bases, crowns, and cornices, which can be used in an infinite number of configurations.
