McRobie Kitchen

SANTA CRUZ GREEN BUILDERS  /  KITCHENS

Welcome to this newly reimagined Capitola kitchen, designed for an active family by the interior design team at Santa Cruz Green Builders. Both vibrant and inviting, the space balances bold design with everyday durability.

Wrapped in blue cabinetry against honed white Carrara marble countertops and a crisp white wall backdrop, the central kitchen feels clean and fresh all hours of the day. A trio of cane cafe stools and a rustic plank table provide plenty of spaces for the family to cook, clean, study, and entertain.

Warm and Contemporary

French Oak flooring, clear pine Marvin Ultimate collection windows, and custom floating shelves by local cabinetmaker Oxford Design bring the warmth of wood into the space. Unlacquered brass fixtures and cabinet hardware provide another warm accent.

High-end fixtures and appliances elevate the space, including a panel-ready refrigerator, a large farmhouse sink, a white and brass gas range, and maple wood pendant lights over the island.

Hand-Hewn Transitions

Original wood work by the owner were preserved and reused during the remodel are incorporated throughout the kitchen and adjoining spaces, paying homage to its roots.
