Chateau shopping! Here is a late 19th century residence in the Perche-Sarthois region, 190 km from Paris. I love the surrounding landscape, the look of the chateau, and the floorplan! More to come.

A sizable pantry in the Chateau Kitchen serves as

A sizable pantry in the Chateau Kitchen serves as a highly functional ‘back-of-house’ work and storage space. I favor placing refrigerators here so the adjacent Culinary Space benefits from added counter surface. In this pantry, along with twin Gaggenau refrigerators, is storage for hanging pots and pans, heirloom pieces, and an area for my puppies, Phoebe (rescued Greyhound/Chihuahua and Bailey (Cockapoo). The top of the wall divider (separating the pantry from the Culinary Space)is a perfect place for plants, pictures, and oversized baskets. Two 24” single Gaggenau ovens are framed by built-in storage. #theinspiredkitchencontest @gaggenauofficial #gaggenau @archdigestpro

I designed a grand, low-maintenance Culinary Space

I designed a grand, low-maintenance Culinary Space for a 300-year-old bare-bones chateau in the Loire Valley. The room is a generous 18’ x 24’ with a 15’ high ceiling.
To keep the Culinary Space spare, I created an adjacent pantry, complete with a Gaggenau refrigerator and an accessory closet. A stage set-like end wall with two framed doorways divides the two spaces.
I’ve placed two 24” single Gaggenau ovens side-by-side on the wall and framed them with built-in storage for easy entertaining. The wall does not reach the ceiling so that light from the pantry window adds illumination and drama to the Culinary Space.
There is a big 6’ x 10’ island on wheels (one of my favorite design details) in the Culinary Space. If you want, you can actually move it a foot or so. Oversized handles on the painted wood base give the illusion that it is completely mobile. A Gaggenau downdraft and induction cooktop and prep sink with a touch less faucet are flush with the quartz countertop. Giant industrial lights illuminate the space.
Below the giant murals of charming Welsh Black cows is a quartz-topped workspace with twin Gaggenau dishwashers with concealed fronts. I love to use murals in my work and, while reading a ‘Respected by Gaggenau’ post I discovered these rare beauties and wanted to incorporate them into my design. The chateau has cows that graze on the surrounding fields. I like that Gaggenau values the preservation of this rare breed.
