In the heart of New York City at 215 E. 19th Street, Bakes & Kropp collaborated with Samantha Drew Interiors to transform a small kitchen into an elegant and classic space. 

At just 170 square feet, the kitchen underwent a remarkable metamorphosis from an ultra-modern space to a warm, transitional haven that is both functional and aesthetically pleasing. Classic Meridian cabinetry, hand-painted in Bakes & Kropp classic white and adorned with bristle-cerused walnut accents and Armac Martin hardware in polished nickel, exudes a timeless elegance. At the kitchen's focal point sits a custom slope-faced Bakes & Kropp hood with repeated glossy nickel accents that add a touch of sophistication and balance. 

The bar area is thoughtfully designed with glass upper cabinets and walnut accents to add visual appeal and contrast. The integration of a column wine refrigerator and custom pantries showcase Bakes & Kropp’s signature balanced approach for a beautiful kitchen that is both thoughtful and stylish. This project is a testament to the team’s ability to blend warmth, drama, and transitional aesthetics seamlessly.
