The overall vibe requested by Cooper was: Bring in light
and open things up.
Michalek considered the mood boards as she started
making selections. “She likes modern farmhouse and con-
temporary. I am pushing to take it more contemporary with
finishes.”
Both Cernoch and Michalek call the kitchen the star of
the show. Major design changes include removal of a wall
and a heavy stone archway over the stove, replacement of
the cabinets and flooring, and the addition of a new suite of
stainless appliances appropriate for “technicureans”—foodies
who love the latest cooking and preservation innovations.
A Place to Chill
Following is a breakdown of the kitchen redesign. It started
with rethinking space. Where there was once an angled
closed-up kitchen wall, there is now an open view to the
living room, and more light.
Cernoch replaced the single refrigerator in that space
with a wall of high-end cooling: The Signature Kitchen
