1. Goeser says this “semi-custom” range hood was executed in tandem with Nonn’s. Although it looks like metal, it’s actually wood painted in a satin black shade — and adds a moody pop.
2. Goeser chose simple slab-front kitchen cabinetry comprised of quarter-sawn oak finished in a cashew stain with modern black hardware to reflect the home’s midcentury aesthetic.
3. Daltile’s geometric backsplash tile goes all the way up to the ceiling. Goeser explains, “We wanted something that was visually interesting and had a major impact.”
4. The white quartz island has a waterfall edge and black cabinets underneath. Goeser says the white and black shades serve as a nice contrast to all of the wood in the kitchen.
1. Goeser says the homeowner’s painting in the dining room served as the inspiration for the entire first floor’s color palette. The sleek Visual Comfort light fixture adds a shot of style to the space, but doesn’t compete with the artwork.
2. There’s plenty of seating around the homeowner’s custom walnut dining table. The built-in banquette is covered in dark orange velvet fabric with a swipe of velvet leopard-print fabric down the middle “to give it a little extra interest,” says Goeser.
3. In the living room, the homeowner had the custom walnut bookcase built with a sliding, slatted component to hide the TV. “For [the homeowner], it was about keeping [the living room] layered, eclectic and textured, as well as feminine and fun,” says Goeser.
4. The kitchen’s coffee nook (that houses the homeowner’s espresso machine) has beautiful black backsplash tile and cabinetry. Goeser painted the back of the cabinets black to let the homeowner’s glassware shine.
1. The home's original tongue-
and-groove ceiling doubles as
structural support for the second floor, so Schultz and her team incorporated the kitchen’s can lighting into the beams. The bonus is that it looks stylishly integrated.
2. Sans hardware, the rift-sawn white oak cabinets with integrated finger pulls have a minimalist, yet stylish, appearance. Floating shelves also add visual interest.
3. To balance the wood tones, the kitchen island is topped in with a creamy marble countertop to brighten the space. The stools can easily be tucked underneath to save space.
4. Makoto’s hexagon matte porcelain tile in umi terracotta was chosen for the flooring and its warm, earthy tones ground the kitchen, while the pattern adds a timeless touch of interest.
1. The smooth, hand-troweled warm ivory plaster range hood (with a protective finish) was custom-made by Fiddlehammer, a Milwaukee furniture company.
2. The Plato cabinetry was chosen and installed in collaboration with the Kitchen Ideas Center. The horizontal quarter-sawn walnut shows off the natural wood grain and the smooth fronts keep the design simple, yet seamless.
3. A waterfall-edge island (topped with Cambria Delgatie quartz) provides a spot for a quick meal. The flooring is actually ceramic, designed to mimic wood (Porcelanosa Heritage Cognac), and is from Flooring Designs.
4. Look closely: The knobs for this Wolf 36” five-burner gas cooktop are integrated into the cabinetry below! Mestizaje’s white zellige matte tile adds polish to the space.
1. The side-by-side Sub-Zero refrigerator and wine cooler were panel-ready, allowing the appliances to blend seamlessly with the surrounding cabinetry for a built-in look. The wine fridge holds 59 bottles and has separate temperature zones for bottles of reds and whites.
2. In the pantry, trapezoid-shaped zellige tile adds a kick of color to the backsplash. The upper cabinets are painted white, while the base cabinets are walnut to match the kitchen. The pantry has a sink (not shown) to make food prep easier and out of view of guests.

1. According to Schultz, the show-stopping marbled backsplash — a mix of rose, oxblood and cream — was the design centerpiece for the kitchen. “We used it behind the range and beneath the shelves as a focal point,” she explains. The striking surface beautifully ties together the kitchen’s mix of materials, including warm wood, mixed metals and the earthy floor tiles.
2. Tucked behind the kitchen, the pantry adds both function and style with rift-sawn white oak cabinetry that offers generous storage. It also houses the integrated oven and microwave which keeps the kitchen free of visual clutter while also providing extra space for food prep and cleanup.
3. The custom oak floating shelves that bookend each side of the range has integrated lighting that illuminates curated displays of glassware, copper canisters and stoneware pottery that Ryan creates in her home studio. Ryan’s thoughtful styling completes the vignette, with vintage artwork and objects collected during her travels.
4. “The coffee bar and appliance garage are cleverly concealed beside the refrigerator, blending seamlessly with the surrounding cabinetry,” explains Schultz. The kitchen’s bespoke design allows for customization in the cabinetry, including dedicated slots for sheet pans and cutting boards.
