Mirrored upper cabinets, soapstone countertops and a designer tile backsplash all add touches of elegance to this architect designed Hollywood Regency kitchen. (above)
This is the 1938 Paul Williams house that Los Angeles architect Kevin Oreck restored and remodeled - Hollywood Regency at its best. In architecture and decor, this home features many bold and glossy design statements that were signature of that era.
I asked Kevin a few questions about the home's kitchen. See below. I think this room is stunning with yellow walls, white cabinetry, mirrored upper cabinets with graphic trim and the fine finishes.
Here are some pictures for you to enjoy and a short Q&A on this home's kitchen, in today's ARCHITECT-TOUR:
COCO: What are the countertops made of?
KEVIN ORECK: Countertops are soapstone.
COCO: What kind of tile for the backsplash?
KEVIN : Ceramic tile from Ann Sacks.
COCO: Please describe the cabinetry (love the mirrored uppers)?
KEVIN: I designed the cabinetry and had it custom made in the Regency style. We wanted the look of glass in the upper cabinets by the range but didn’t want to see the contents of those cabinets, so we used mirror instead. There is glass in the other uppers.
COCO: Was this a total remodel?
KEVIN: This is a complete restoration/remodel of a 1938 Paul Williams house. The kitchen is completely different because there had originally been several smaller rooms meant for staff only. I redesigned it to look like the rest of the house, which is a Hollywood Regency style.
Now, for once, I am just going to let these awesome pictures and the unique design speak for themselves in this post...for once I will remain silent and let design take center stage instead of allowing my endless chitter chatter to clutter up the post with nonsensical musings about all of my "non-dilemma dilemmas"....I can hear the collective sigh of relief....hmmmm......
Love this home. Thank you once again Kevin for sharing your inspiring work with me and my readers!!!
