Turrell lane
Overview
East Coast meets West Coast in this gorgeous historic Colonial which was built in 1900 for A.D. Puffer, the inventor of the soda fountain. The homeowners had a distinct vision for this house that merged the classic New England architecture with a glamorous old Hollywood vibe. Their vision centered around a bold black-and-white palette with gold accents, taking inspiration from homes designed during Hollywood’s golden age in the 1930s.
Functionality and glamor
Black cabinetry stretches all the way to the lofty ceiling, and striking, deeply veined white marble comprises the counters and backsplash. “The color scheme doesn’t feel cold, because it’s warmed up with the walnut island and the different finishes and textures that are layered throughout the space,” Paula Accioly, JF head of design says. Brass was used for hardware and the mesh was installed on the cabinet fronts and is inset in the custom titanium hood, while leathered black granite tops the island. Wide, curved archways create connections between the adjacent spaces that feel welcoming.
Every detail is important
In the planning phase, Accioly recommended relocating the powder room to create space for a walk-in pantry. The size of a small room with a window, it encompasses a built-in desk and abundant storage. All of the greens are different, yet they all go together,” Paula Accioly says. “You don’t need to do tone-on-tone to create a beautiful look.”
The kitchen is striking and elegant, but it’s not a space that takes itself too seriously. The busy young family and their French bulldogs ensure that the kitchen is a welcoming and warm environment.
