ABOUT THE KITCHEN
Morgan Creek Cabinet Co. www.morgancreekcabinets.net
In uenced by travel, the homeowners razed their 1950s Ranch and built their vision of a Mediterranean home. With designer Samantha Minutelli, architect, Norris Broyles & Associates, builder, The Macallan Group, cabinet makers, Morgan Creek Cabinet Company, the homeowners began to turn their Mediterranean vision into a reality. The homeowners envisioned a large, European-style kitchen open to the home’s living room and gallery. Minutelli’s challenge was to marry a European, pieced-together-over-centuries, aesthetic with a traditional, American lifestyle. Minutelli worked with Sean McNeish of Morgan Creek Cabinet Company to create cabinetry that combined the form and charm of a rustic, European country house with the function and elegance of a modern, American kitchen. The three walls of cabinetry were designed as separate “pieces” that together create the desired “whole.” The cabinetry that frames the kitchen’s large window was designed to resemble an antique European cupboard. It also functions as the main sink area and conceals the dishwasher and trash pull-out. The seeded glass and exposed hardware complement the antique-in uenced design. The homeowner’s devotion to the European ideal was such that they designed a “Service Kitchen” and a “Butler’s Pantry” to house the more utilitarian but necessary appliances. They are great entertainers, so the separate spaces and additional cabinetry for silver, china and serving platters were a must. They also wanted a special room for their dogs complete with built-in crates and retractable gates between the dogs’ room and the kitchen that can be hidden away in a specially designed chase behind the kitchen cabinets.
