New York, NY (PRWEB) December 03, 2014

MyHome, the New York City based design and remodeling firm, has completed a transformative kitchen and bathroom renovation at 253 West 16th Street in Manhattan. The project was lead by Ji Sun Park.

MyHome faced a major spacial challenge in this kitchen remodeling project. The client initially wanted to open up a wall in the extremely narrow kitchen, but after a year of back and forth with building and city officials, she eventually had to let go of the idea. Therefore, Parks team was challenged to make both spaces feel wider and more functional without any actual walls coming down.

To address this challenge, Park infused the kitchen with simple lines through the use of shaker style cabinets, a neutral monochromatic color scheme, and warm lighting. Slim line appliances were used, including a 24 wide x 24 deep gas range, a 24 wide x 24 deep refrigerator, and an 18 wide dishwasher. Traditional accessories were paired with antiques owned by the client to create a depth of design across the space. Furniture pieces from the client were also used to create open shelving in the kitchen. Gray subway tile was used as a backsplash and, to add a unique element, was paired with black grout.

In the bathroom, one challenge of the original space was that the tub took up a majority of the narrow room. To address this, Park replaced the tub with a standing shower. Walls were specifically built to prevent water splashing while the shower is in use. Similar to the kitchen, white subway tile was paired with dark gray grout for contrast.

Additional touches to the overall space were open shelving in the seating area to accommodate the clients large book collection.

MyHome was founded in 2001 by managing partner Yoel Piotraut. The company, which is based in New York City, has a team of fifteen consultants, designers, and managers. MyHomes New York City kitchen and bath showroom is located at 353 West 48th Street in Manhattan. Ji Sun Park has been working with MyHome since 2012.

MyHome Completes Transformative Renovation in Chelsea

When Pasadena, Calif.-based contemporary artist Echo Addis began remodeling her home, she hoped the kitchen would be more than just a place to cook. As the last piece of her home to undergo a redesign, the kitchen would join the rest of the house as part of a permanent art gallery. Designer Elina Katsioula-Beall, principal of DeWitt Design Kitchens, undertook the challenge to create both a modern, functional kitchen and a setting to showcase the artists work.

The first requirement was for thekitchento be part of a continuous space, conducive to viewing her artwork from multiple points of view, said Katsioula-Beall, also adding that the layout would include an open plan combining the dining room and living area. The second requirement was for the kitchen to cook for her and cater hors-d-oeuvre parties during her show-opening and otherevents, she said.

Since storage for hosting these parties involved large cabinetry installations, the leftover space did not leave enough room for much artwork. The key solution was to integrate the paintings within the kitchen elements, the designer explained. The wall behind the cooking area and the backsplashes offered the best focal points for the artwork.

Shielded by tempered glass, the oil painting behind the hood is rendered on wallpaper canvas and can be removed if the client wants to replace it. As part of the design, I determined the size of the painting and then gave her a real size template and a trace of the hood footprint, which we placed at the designed height on the canvas, Katsioula-Beall explained. The canvas was stretched and wallpapered with light adhesive before being covered with the glass. The other backsplashes are similarly protected.

With these oil paintings popping with color, the rest of the palette took a cue from the arts undertones. When I visited her painters studio, I was instantly captivated by the aesthetic of her paintings, said Katsioula-Beall. My design aesthetic was to create a balanced and harmonious composition a still life of artwork and necessary kitchen elements.

Lavender silestone countertops draw from one of the artists palette colors and compliments the artwork on the backsplashes. The gray on the island provides a grounding effect in the composition. A bright blue on the side of the peninsula frames the kitchen from the dining room, and the turquoise and muted yellow walls also recall Addis work.

Made of light maple, the perimeter cabinets complement the gray rift-cut, white oak cabinetry around the island and refrigerator. Both colors are neutral enough to support the starring artwork, and they bring in the element of wood, which softens the composition, Katsioula-Beall said. Two glass cabinets on either side of the window contrast the other cabinets with aluminum frames and front-rib glass.

Even the appliances bolster the artwork. The hoods slight arch coincides with the curved shapes in the pieces, and the stainless steel range keeps any additional color from conflicting with the art. The freezer panel has three small frame openings, where a trio of oil paintings is showcased.

As in any gallery or museum, the lighting is essential to properly showcase art. Katsioulla-Beall chose 4-in., recessed LED lights with 2700K color temperature light bulbs, which simulate museum lighting with warmer tones. The size of the paintings and the distances from the ceiling were calculated in the design, so that the beam spread of each light bulb accents the artwork without light-spills or shadows, the designer explained. The trims of the light fixtures can be pulled down and swiveled to focus on a particular painting.
