The kitchen in this 1930s Colonial Revival home in Seattle’s Interlaken neighbourhood was redesigned by Studio Laloc to honour its Dutch colonial roots. Inspired by historic Amsterdam kitchens the statement hood recalls open hearth fireplaces while traditional detailing and a blue cabinetry palette enhance authenticity. For the young family functionality was key with sustainable appliances, ample storage and a built-in banquette creating a welcoming, efficient space. The result is a timeless yet practical kitchen blending history with modern comfort.
