Guided by the client’s contemporary vision, the home was designed to feel both warm and distinctly masculine. Rich, grain-matched Sapele cabinetry brings natural depth and texture to the space, balancing the various gray finishes used throughout. In the kitchen, leathered granite countertops help cut the glare typically associated with polished stone, adding a grounded, tactile quality to the room.
Subtle design moments are woven in at every turn. A shift in tile size, kept within the same gray palette, quietly distinguishes the wet bar from the kitchen, creating a sense of separation without disrupting the cohesive flow. Choices like these enhance the home’s modern aesthetic, bringing a sense of character that feels perfectly suited to the client.
