The Edises Residence














KITCHEN AS FUNCTIONAL ART 2004 to 2005 Hillsborough, California USA

The kitchen space in any home is the central work space that literally sustains the occupants of a home. It has become the space where all the central activities, communication and relationships occur. It is the crossroads of all activities which take place in a home. Simply stated; it is the heart of the home.



A kitchen can also be these things and much more. For most, a kitchen is a hub-bub of activity, a work place, an area to create and produce. Given the nature of the space should we not take full advantage of our common historical notions of a kitchen and transform it into something uncommon and extraordinary?



There is an extraordinary woman who lives in northern California in an extraordinary house and she wanted an extraordinary kitchen.
