Wolf SRT366 and VW36G in Low Country Modern by Laura Lee Samford.

Low Country Modern

2017-2018 KDC Finalist

Dans la cuisine Low Country Modern, chaque élément semble être à sa juste place— et c'est ainsi que Laura Lee Samford l'a conçue. Alliant habilement décontraction et sophistication, la cuisine ne vise pas seulement à épater les invités, mais elle s'adapte également à l'usage quotidien de ses propriétaires et aux réceptions qu'ils organisent fréquemment.

Samford’s design seamlessly integrates the appliances, cabinetry, and interior architecture through a consistent finish: quarter-sawn, wire-brushed, and white-washed white oak that resembles driftwood. The island and window mullions are in a darker hue and provide the right amount of contrast for a richer feel. In totality, the monochrome palette imparts a slightly rustic yet refined aesthetic. Boldly positioned in the middle the kitchen, the island serves two purposes. It houses many of the appliances necessary for the client’s ideal, functional kitchen—including a Wolf warming drawer and Sub-Zero refrigeration drawers—while its sheer size creates the kitchen’s focal point. The jewel-like, handblown light fixtures over the island emphasize the island’s importance further. For added convenience and utility, a butler’s pantry sits just off the kitchen. In addition to laundry appliances and coat and broom closets, it houses two Sub-Zero wine storage columns and Wolf M series double ovens and warming drawer.

Samford and the clients selected Sub-Zero and Wolf appliance chiefly for their reliability and sophistication. The 24-inch Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer flanking the Wolf rangetop provide ample storage space, despite their narrow dimension. Using a unique approach, Samford designed the Wolf rangetop to sit flush with the stainless-steel countertops for a cleaner, more architecturally refined look.

Nestled in the low country just outside of Savannah, Georgia, peering over the Ogeechee River and Lake Clara, this classical farmhouse needed a kitchen that would match the grandeur of the landscape—and Samford did just that.
