Hidden Elements

ASHLEY CAMPBELL

Ashley Campbell Interior Design, Denver, CO

To accommodate the clients’ desire for a modern, timeless space in which to entertain, the entire first floor of this home was gutted and reconfigured. At the center of the renovation was the kitchen, a cramped, dated and dark space that was transformed into a chef’s dream by Ashley Campbell.

Top-of-the-line Wolf and Sub-Zero appliances elevate meal preparation, while custom cabinetry offers a seamless blend of functionality and style. The flat-panel cabinetry from Aspen Leaf Kitchens features walnut milled from sustainable materials, along with thermal laminate finishes, with Buster + Punch hardware adding a dramatic touch. 

Along the back wall, Arabescato quartz surfacing from PentalQuartz with Wolf cooktop cools down the warm tones of the wood cabinetry, complementing the gray tone of the upper cabinets that disguise the hood and gas ventilation. Along the side wall, a paneled Sub-Zero 36″ refrigerator and 30″ freezer sit next to a Wolf wall oven.

The focal point of the kitchen, the expansive quartz-topped island, provides ample space for food prep and houses a Blanco Precis sink and Brizo Litze faucet. Adverse to seeing pop-up outlets in their giant island, the clients requested an intentional design feature that disguised the code-required element. The result is a distinctive intersection point along the counter. The gray cabinets of the island also complement the gray over the cooktop and hide a Bosch dishwasher behind a panel.

Finishing the space is a coffee bar that includes a plumbed coffee station and space for a curated espresso cup collection.
