Kindred is a kitchen renovation in Brentwood, NH, designed around the way a family comes together.
The island is the heart of it. Built like a farmhouse table, it seats four along one side, right across from where dinner comes together. A leathered quartzite top adds soft movement and a subtle texture you notice when you rest your hands on it. White oak carries through the lower cabinets and the hood, while crisp white uppers keep the walls bright. Brushed brass hardware adds warmth, and a blue grey subway tile backsplash ties the room together.
Once the project was finished, our homeowner shared that his teenager now spends much more time out of their room and in the kitchen with the rest of the family. Of everything this renovation changed, that might be the part that matters most.
