Smoke + Outré

Summit, NJ

Originally closed off from the rest of the home, this kitchen was opened by removing structural barriers and introducing a large peninsula to support cooking, gathering, and casual dining. The result is a space that functions as the true center of the home, with improved light, flow, and connection to outdoor areas. The design blends traditional architecture with modern and art deco influences in a colorful, eclectic composition. Architect: Tom Baio.
