Soapstone Warmth

Soapstone WarmthThis warm historic kitchen presented a substantial challenge with its two windows, three doorways, and original brick chimney for venting a woodstove. Custom cherry cabinets, soapstone sink and countertops, stainless appliances, slate floor, and circa 1850s tin ceiling, make this kitchen a stand-out.

This cherry built-in looks like it harkens back to 1912, which was our exact intention. We were going for a furniture appeal and used antique wavy glass in the upper doors and a built-in a wine rack as a focal point. The counters were done in Elberton (North Georgian) white marble with an ogee edge; this was the marble used in many turn-of-the-century kitchens in Atlanta and the Southeast.
