The Old Oaks kitchen shares a spectrum of the designer’s signature natural materials; white-washed Larch panels, black-stained cabinetry, marble, as well as largeformat porcelain and handmade tiles. “Clean, open and timeless, I wanted the kitchen to anchor the house and provide the foundation in palette and design direction for the rest of the home,” Carole says.
