Taft Modern, Oakland

Residential, Remodel, Kitchen
When the Craftsman homes of Rockridge were built 100 years ago, life was simpler and kitchens were so much smaller! We brought this two-story Craftsman home into the 21st century by opening up the old galley kitchen to the outdoors and the dining area. With new in-kitchen seating, easy access to the back deck and dining room, the entertaining options are endless. A see-through fireplace and wide, airy passage connecting the kitchen and dining areas create an open, modern aesthetic for this fresh and flexible new living space.
