this unorthodox project, and engaged Holly Gagne of Holly Gagne Interior Design to help them figure out how to reno- vate with the cabinets as the centerpiece of the project. "The concept of it was very cool—to salvage a whole kitchen that was in very good shape and modify it," she says. Yet it was a departure from her typical way of working: "Usually I design a space and then the cabine- try. I had never seen their space before. So that whole part of the process was completely cut out." She and her team used a computer program to reconstruct how the cabinets had been arranged and then figured out how they could be repurposed for the D'Alelios' space. It turned out that not even a portion of the cabinets would fit in the existing kitchen—the room would have to be expanded substantially. And even with a bigger space, some of the cabinets had to be modified and other custom pieces added. The result is basically a double kitchen—a main kitchen area fronted by a span of windows looking out to the garden, and a secondary kitchen where the original one used to be. The D'Alelios also added a mud- room, a laundry room, and a powder room. The main kitchen is for daily cooking, with a Wolf four-burner stove with a griddle and double oven, a Miele dishwasher, a large Sub-Zero refrigerator, and Top, Between the two spaces is a seating area with gray swivel chairs where the family congregates. Bottom, A blue barn door separates the kitchen and mudroom. vignettes nshoremag.com/nshorehome/ Landscaping DANA & Water Gardens C M Y CM MY CY CMY K dana logo CMYK.pdf 1 3/31/2014 11:30:06 AM Tom Busta Landscape Design Water Gardens Landscape Lighting www.danalandscaping.com pond_guru@verizon.net Ph. 978-682-9267 Fax 978-409-1206 124 High Plain Rd Andover, MA 01810 DANA dana logo CMYK.pdf 1 3/31/2014 11:30:06 AM Tom Busta Landscape Design Water Gardens Landscaping DANA & Water Gardens C M Y CM MY CY CMY K dana logo CMYK.pdf 1 3/31/2014 11:30:06 AM Tom Busta Landscape Design Water Gardens Landscape Lighting www.danalandscaping.com pond_guru@verizon.net Ph. 978-682-9267 Fax 978-409-1206 124 High Plain Rd Andover, MA 01810 DANA dana logo CMYK.pdf 1 3/31/2014 11:30:06 AM Tom Busta Landscape Design Water Gardens Landscaping DANA & Water Gardens C M Y CM MY CY CMY K dana logo CMYK.pdf 1 3/31/2014 11:30:06 AM Tom Busta Landscape Design Water Gardens Landscape Lighting www.danalandscaping.com pond_guru@verizon.net Ph. 978-682-9267 Fax 978-409-1206 124 High Plain Rd Andover, MA 01810 DANA dana logo CMYK.pdf 1 3/31/2014 11:30:06 AM Tom Busta Landscape Design Water Gardens Water Gardens · Lighting Outdoor Living Spaces DANA LANDSCAPING www.danalandscaping.com Call us for a free consultation.
