Situated along the quiet shoreline of North Haven, Sag Harbor, this project demonstrates Head of Design Bob Bakes’ mastery of architectural symmetry and material contrast. Built around Bakes & Kropp’s Canterbury Collection, the white cabinetry provides a clean, timeless backdrop enriched by soft Pearl Walnut accents. Armac Martin hardware in polished nickel adds a tailored metallic detail throughout, completing a refined palette suited to its Hamptons setting.
The layout is precisely aligned around a primary visual axis, establishing intentional symmetry between the range wall and the central island. Anchoring the workspace, the island features an integrated sink, dedicated seating for four, and a distinctive L-shaped wood countertop supported by matching corbels that introduces organic warmth and texture to the gathering area.
High-performance utility is seamlessly integrated into the Canterbury cabinetry, maintaining uncluttered sightlines while optimizing storage and workflow across the multi-zone footprint. Through a balanced calibration of proportion, wood and painted finishes, and elegant hardware, the design achieves a harmonious coastal aesthetic that feels both structurally grounded and crafted for everyday living.
