Phase II – An extensive Finish + Fixture remodel was done to the existing 1300 square feet of living space, transforming it into a “modern Danish Farm House”. The basis of the remodel was creating a new floor plane throughout, made of 10” wide flat sawn Douglas fir. The wood finish is a traditional Danish white oil.

The custom kitchen cabinets are made of the same wood and finish as the floor. The appliances are all under counter to keep the view lines open across the living, dining and outdoors. The counters are custom made concrete and the backsplash is white Heath tile.
