When my husband, Josh, and I moved to Brooklyn Heights a few years ago, we were lucky enough to find a parlor floor flat that hadn\u2019t been updated for a couple of decades, so it was a blank slate. The kitchen in particular needed work, so we called on our friend Malachi Connolly, a New York\/Cape Cod-based architect, preservationist, and longtime board member of the Cape Cod Modern House Trust to oversee the renovation. Here\u2019s how to get the look:<\/p>\n

Above: My inspiration for the kitchen was English couturier Anna Valentine\u2019s London apartment, which we featured on Remodelista a couple of years ago (see Kitchen of the Week: A Culinary Space Inspired by a Painting).
\n

Above: We turned to Brooklyn-based Jeremy Pickett of Pickett Furniture (one of our earliest Remodelista advertisers, back in the late aughts) for the minimally detailed cabinets. The countertops are Carrara marble. (For countertop guidance, see our post Remodeling 101: The Difference Between Carrara, Calacatta, and Statuary Marble.) A repurposed florist vase holds stalks of garlic from the farmer\u2019s market (I was inspired by David Tanis\u2019 kitchen storage ideas).
\n

Above: I dithered on the kitchen pendant decision, so as a placeholder, we went with hardware store porcelain fixtures and decorative oversized Nostalgic Collection lightbulbs from Bulbrite, discovered at John Derian\u2019s West Village shop.
\n

Above: The wall-mounted Chicago Kitchen Faucet with articulated spout is a model we\u2019ve used before; it\u2019s well priced, American made, and incredibly durable. We installed a dowel in the cabinet above the sink to hold paper towels. (See Aha! Hack: Tension Rod as Paper Towel Holder.)
\n

Above: We tucked a stacked Bosch washer\/dryer behind a full-height door; instant laundry room.
Above: We chose a Bertazzoni PRO304GASX Range for its good looks and relatively slim profile (compared to a Wolf or a Viking).,<\/p>\n

Above: We scored our SubZero on Craigslist (price: $2,000). A new Sub-Zero BI-36U 36-Inch Built-In Bottom-Freezer Refrigerator is $13,700. (See 10 Easy Pieces: Best 36-Inch Counter-Depth Refrigerators.)
\n

Above: Our Bertazzoni 30-inch gas range model (pictured) is discontinued; its newer version, the Bertazzoni Professional Series 30-Inch Counter-Depth Gas Range, is $5,139 at AJ Madison.
\n

Above: The Bosch 300 Series Compact Condensation Dryer and Washer are each $1,349. (See 10 Easy Pieces: Stackable Washer\/Dryers.)
\n

Above: Our espresso machine is currently out of stock, but you can buy refurbished Pasquini Livia 90 MN Espresso Machines online.,<\/p>\n

Einrichtungsgegenst\u00e4nde<\/h2>\n


Above: The Chicago Faucets Wall-Mounted Adjustable Center Kitchen Faucet has an articulated spout, is well-priced, well-engineered, and offers a classic lab aesthetic; $265.82 at Consumers Plumbing. For more ideas, see 10 Easy Pieces: Wall-Mounted Industrial Faucets.
\n

Above: The Bulbrite Vintage Ceiling Pendant Light Bulb ($37.26 from Nostalgic Bulbs) adds a note of drama.
\n

Above: A Remodelista favorite for its budget price and classic looks, Leviton\u2019s Porcelain 600-Watt 250-Volt White Outlet Box Lampholder from Home Depot is just $2.68.(See Object Lessons: The Hardware Store Porcelain Light Socket.) <\/p>\n

\n

Above: Borosil\u2019s Classic Glass Tumblers start at $30 for a set of 6 small tumblers.,

\n

Above: I bought our Frisbee Trash Bin, designed by French industrial designer Fr\u00e9d\u00e9ric Perigot, at ABC Home (it\u2019s also available from Perigot; from \u20ac259. <\/p>\n
