Kitchen Design
Designed to honor its historic roots while embracing contemporary living, the East Side Colonial in Providence, Rhode Island is a prime example of beautifully balanced, timeless design. Outfitted with deep blue cabinetry and crisp white countertops, this kitchen carries a stately and welcoming feel. At its center, a generous island features custom vertical reeding details, a built-in microwave drawer, and comfortable seating for four.
The adjacent bar area shifts the focus towards effortless hosting. Here, built-in wine racks and open shelving provide the perfect setup for entertaining. Rich walnut countertops add an organic warmth that ties the space seamlessly back to the main kitchen.
Laundry Room Design
Continuing the home’s blend of contemporary and historic charm, the laundry room turns functionality into a design highlight. The black and white checkered floors and patterned wallpaper grant the space a vintage character, while warm white cabinetry and brass hardware keep it modern. A sleek countertop running over the washer and dryer completes the room, providing ample clean space for folding.
