Pernille and her family of four live a stairway away from her parents. The multi-generational group bought a historic house in Valby, in the southwest corner of Copenhagen, with plans to cohabitate. Pernille and crew have the ground floor with easy access to the yard, and her parents are on the parlor floor\u2014each with mine and yours new kitchens.<\/p>\n

Wanting cooking setups that were \u201csimilar but distinct and personal,\u201d explains architect Ditlev Rahbek, they turned to his firm, Stillark. The group specializes in colorful, clean-lined kitchen designs and offers two cabinet models, both of which are highly customizable. As Rahbek explains, \u201cWe have taken the bespoke out of bespoke, and made careful and defining choices in terms of design and materials. This means that the architect and customer can focus on layout and functionality.\u201d Space was tight upstairs and down, and the challenge, in addition to introducing cohesion and variety, was fitting in tables to gather around. Come see the results.<\/p>\n

Downstairs: The Young Family\u2019s Kitchen in Terracotta<\/h3>\n


Above: Pernille and her mother, Anne-Marie, and their family of six share a villa that dates from the early 1900s. and retains its original moldings, shelves, and wide pine floorboards. \u201cThe balance between new and old in this house is kept very neat\u2014restoring existing details, only adding new where needed,\u201d says project architect Nina Othel of Stillark.
\n

Above: The cabinets, from Stillark\u2019s Section line, are painted wood\u2014Pernille says \u201cour friends thought we were brave for choosing this color, but we haven\u2019t regretted it for a second\u2014everything goes with it.\u201d The counter and tabletop are both solid oak with a thin layer of laminate.,

Above: Terracotta is one of Stillark\u2019s six proprietary paint colors\u2014the firm notes the shades all complement each other and often paints the interior of cabinets in a second color. The chrome drawer and cabinet pulls are also a Stillark design.

Above: Stillark restored the room\u2019s existing shelves and wall-paneling, allowing the new kitchen cabinets to, as Othel notes, \u201csettle neatly into the space, merging seamlessly with the atmosphere of the house.\u201d

Above: The kitchen opens to the yard. Built-in bench seating enabled the architects to fit in a sizable dining table and Wishbone Chairs. For a similar table, consider the Dulwich by Case.,<\/p>\n

Upstairs: The Grandparents\u2019 Kitchen in Misty Blue<\/h3>\n


Above: \u201cThe original detailing pulled the downstairs kitchen in a more traditional direction, whereas the bare walls upstairs make it read more contemporary,\u201d says Othel. Stillark has an online shop offering a small collection of its kitchen furnishings and accessories, including its flat pack Gable Tripper step stool.
\n

Above: The oak countertop has a thin laminate in a blue that matches the cabinets. Stillark\u2019s paint\u2013here in a shade it calls Misty Blue\u2014allows the oak graining of the drawers to shine through. The colorful wooden Salt and Pepper Mills are available from Stillark.
