Midcentury Modern Renovation

As featured on the interior design website MyDomaine, this kitchen in Rockford, Maryland, received quite an impressive transformation. Four Brothers Design + Build in Washington DC renovated the Colonial home which had a dark 90’s era kitchen.

The original space was cramped and lacked functionality, so architect Sondra Zabroske expanded the footprint of the kitchen into the home’s formal dining room to create a more open and welcoming space. Interior Designer Lydia Blanton used the contrast of black and white elements and walnut wood to brighten and update the area, while creating a bold and funky midcentury style. District Cabinets designed new cabinetry for the kitchen. 

In the article, Lydia notes that “the best part was creating a cool pass-through serving window onto the screened-in back patio for year-round outdoor entertaining.” The window she is referring to is our ActivWall Gas Strut Window. Four Brothers Design + Build purchased the 72″ wide by 42″ high unit from Merit Windows, an authorized ActivWall dealer serving residential customers throughout Washington, DC. 

The Gas Strut Window is finished in a custom white powder coat called Bianco 302 and has white hardware. ActivWall built the unit for this space with dual handles on either side of the kitchen’s under-mount sink and dark bronze faucet. The window has insulated glass for year-round comfort and a raised sill to protect against the elements. 

This open and airy space is sure to be a hotspot for entertaining family and friends for years to come.
