Bakes & Kropp was enlisted to design multiple rooms in this unique beachfront home in Southampton, NY. As an “upside down” house, the kitchen, living room, and master bedroom are all located on the third floor of the home for the best views of the ocean over the dunes. Under the direction of  Senior Designer Guillaume Dupré, our team sought to maximize these views through a careful redesign of the kitchen and adjacent library through a muted color palette and sophisticated finishes. 

The kitchen features Slim Canterbury hand-painted cabinets with brushed stainless steel appliances. Two sinks complement the large, center kitchen island on both sides with drawers and open shelves for additional storage space. Floor-to-ceiling cabinets surround the fridge with a bread box and wine shelves. A long, countertop situated on the opposite side of the space features ample prep space that separates the kitchen from the dining room. Off the kitchen, our team designed floor-to-ceiling mint green shelves for the client’s extensive book collection complete with two reading nooks.
