your satisfaction<br />

The homeowners needed a highly functional space with adequate storage for a busy<br />

family of four. The existing layout was not supporting their active lifestyle and was<br />

making their kitchen a drop zone.<br />

The entry from the garage was flanked by a laundry room on one side and a closet and<br />

deep pantry on the other. The laundry did not have much storage which wasted valuable<br />

space and the closet was too small. Problems solved, and they love it!<br />

“The Sistons loved working with Kitchen Kraft and enjoyed Jim’s process. Jim invested the time needed with<br />

them to learn their needs and explained how that would be accomplished. The plan was well in place after<br />

their first meeting.<br />

The crew was phenomenal. They cleaned up at the end of each day and were transparent with what was<br />

going on through the entire process.<br />

Mrs. Siston loves the new laundry room and feels at peace in this beautiful space while doing laundry.<br />

Mr. Siston loves the functionality of the spacious kitchen and enjoys cooking more than ever.”<br />

Don't Crowd<br />

the Cook<br />

Kitchen renovation carefully planned<br />

for maneuvering inside historic home<br />

BY KAREN BRADNER | Photos by Daniel Feldkamp<br />

While there is plenty of room for them, there are no barstools anywhere near the<br />

handsome 9 by 4-foot island in Kim Borcherding’s newly remodeled kitchen. And<br />

there’s a definite reason for that. Kim likes to cook and entertain crowds on a seriously<br />

regular basis and she would prefer her guests not cluster near the island and<br />

fence her in while she is cooking. ➻<br />

housetrends magazine 21


“I like to disperse the crowd so I can<br />

really function,” she says.<br />

The fact that Kim and her husband,<br />

Douglas Gaker, like their space, is evident<br />

as soon as you drive up to their<br />

1,800-foot long driveway to their nearly<br />

200-year-old farmhouse. Sitting on<br />

200 acres, their home affords plenty of<br />

breathing room. Scattered nearby are a<br />

pond, tennis court, two barns, an oversized<br />

garage, a guest home, and plenty<br />

of gardens.<br />

Yours, mine and ours<br />

When the couple married six years<br />

ago, Douglas who is a urologist for the<br />

Kettering Health Network, already<br />

owned the home. Kim was owner of<br />

Borcherding Buick GMC and the two<br />

shared a love of vintage cars—and<br />

seven mostly grown children between<br />

them. The newlyweds quickly got busy<br />

blending their families.<br />

As with most families, much of<br />

the bonding was taking place in the<br />

heart of the home. While the original<br />

kitchen was large and had high-quality<br />

walnut cabinetry, the renovation was<br />

30 years old, the space was dark and<br />

the arrangement wasn’t very workfriendly<br />

for Kim. She used the space as<br />

command central for six years, until it<br />

slowly became apparent the room was<br />

due for an upgrade.<br />

“The appliances began going out one<br />

by one,” Kim says. “We decided it was<br />

time.”<br />

Once the decision to remodel was<br />

made, the couple did not hesitate to<br />

call Carrie and John Bordenkircher,<br />

owners of Kircher Design and Build.<br />

The two had previously renovated the<br />

home’s upstairs bath, and Kim and<br />

Douglas knew they were the right<br />

team for this job.<br />

During the initial planning stage,<br />

Kim was focused on creating a farmhouse<br />

kitchen. As John and Carrie<br />

2<br />

3<br />

2 A beverage station includes two refrigerated drawers, which a friend<br />

convinced Kim to include. She was skeptical at first, but loves having<br />

them now. 3 A pot-filler faucet is positioned near the range, but also<br />

above a second sink, making it handy on multiple levels. 4 The stately<br />

island was custom designed for the space and hand built with walnut and<br />

maple woods. 5 Kim arranges flowers grown on the property. Douglas is<br />

a member of the Dahlia Society of Ohio.<br />

introduced farmhouse-style elements<br />

Kim began to realize that wasn’t what<br />

she really wanted. “I am more of a<br />

dressy person and I needed to stay<br />

authentic to myself,” she says.<br />

The existing design was an ornate,<br />

Tuscan style which didn’t go with the<br />

Federal style of the home. The challenge,<br />

Carrie says, was taking an already<br />

handsome space and transforming it<br />

into something that would give the<br />

homeowners that “wow” factor.<br />

4<br />

5<br />

Bells and whistles<br />

Another challenge: the sheer number<br />

of appliances Kim wanted in her new<br />

kitchen—including a LaCornue range,<br />

two Miele wall ovens—one steam and<br />

one combination, a standalone freezer<br />

and refrigerator, a dishwasher, two<br />

beverage drawers, an ice maker, a flash<br />

freezer, and a dehydrator.<br />

“There is no toy I didn’t get,” Kim<br />

says with a smile. “These appliances<br />

can make you a master chef even if<br />

you aren’t one.”<br />

While the Kircher team kept the<br />

footprint of the main kitchen the<br />

same, they were able to gather a good<br />

deal of additional space by relocating<br />

an adjacent laundry room to the<br />

upstairs owners’ suite. This new butler’s<br />

pantry serves as a food prep area<br />

with plenty of counter and cabinet<br />

space.<br />

Island of dreams<br />

When it came time to design the focal<br />

point of the kitchen, Kim found a<br />

photo online of an island she liked.<br />

“I gave it to them to show the look<br />

and feel I was after, Kim says. “Boy did<br />

they take it and run!”<br />

“That island is an artistic piece,”<br />

Carrie says. “The photo Kim gave us<br />

only showed a partial end view. It took<br />

John a lot of time to create.”<br />

Once his design was complete, John turned plans over to the craftsmen at<br />

Peters Cabinetry who custom built it based on his drawing. The final product<br />

resembles a heirloom-quality piece of furniture that introduces form as well as a<br />

good deal of function to the kitchen.<br />

“Have I shown you these drawers?” Kim says. “The storage in this is unbelievable.<br />

Remarkable.”<br />

Chef’s choice<br />

Just a step away from the island, the 48-inch LaCornue range holds court, with<br />

a hammered copper range hood mounted above it between a set of windows.<br />

The dual fuel ovens are two of the four ovens found throughout the space.<br />

“With such a large family, at any given time I’ve got four ovens and the cooktop<br />

going,” says Kim, who admits her favorite appliance just may be her Miele<br />

steam oven.<br />

“The way the heat cooks the food—superior results,” she says. “Doug stocked<br />

the lake with trout. He went fishing a few weeks ago, caught one, cleaned it and<br />

stuck it in the steam oven. We had fresh trout for dinner that night.”<br />

Hello Freddy<br />

Another appliance that gets a lot of accolades is the blast chiller, nicknamed<br />

“Freddy” by its manufacturer.<br />

“We have a garden,” Kim says. “The idea is to bring fresh foods in, do the prep,<br />

flash freeze them, and store them in our main freezer. When we are ready to use<br />

them, they are just as fresh as the day we picked them.”<br />

9<br />

10<br />

Room to roam<br />

Just as in the space around her island, Kim doesn’t want any bottlenecks in the<br />

traffic flow while entertaining. The kitchen flows easily through a wide-open<br />

archway into a family room and on to a four-season patio room—all with a<br />

calming view of the pond.<br />

That archway had to be rebuilt by the Kircher team. “Old houses are tough,”<br />

Carrie says. “Things are out of square.” They also had to shore up and replace the<br />

kitchen and hearth room floors being careful not to damage their radiant heat<br />

system.<br />

The renovation also necessitated a rewiring of the entire space. The team at<br />

Hanson Audio Video took on that task and installed a state-of-the-art security<br />

system along with the latest and greatest television and sound components.<br />

The hearth room got a bit of a facelift as well, with a new Obsidian tile surround<br />

on the fireplace, which picks up the backsplash tile in the kitchen. The<br />

mantel is hand made by John from a piece of walnut wood that came from a<br />

farm in Lebanon. Walls are painted a rich navy blue suggested by the Kircher<br />

team. Kim was hesitant to go forward with the strong color at first, but now<br />

admits, “I’ve become a blue nut!” ➻<br />

6 The pond is a magnet for family and friends when the couple entertains.<br />

7 The dining room table is set with pieces from the couple’s<br />

extensive collection of German Meissen Blue Onion china which was<br />

passed on to them from Douglas’ mother. 8 The hearth room got a bit<br />

of a facelift as well, with new cabinetry, a tile surround, and a Samsung<br />

Frame TV posing as artwork. 9 Formerly a laundry room, this butler’s<br />

pantry works well for party prep and includes a blast chiller and dehydrator,<br />

(on the right) and plenty of cabinetry to house serving pieces.<br />

10 Chairs from the informal dining area, double as extra seating when<br />

pulled into the hearth room and paired up with matching ottomans.<br />

Respectful update<br />

Despite all of this updating to 21st<br />

century amenities, Kim and Douglas<br />

are incredibly respectful of the home’s<br />

history. A framed newspaper clipping<br />

in their front parlor tells the history of<br />

the home and a bit about its original<br />

owner, Samuel Jeffery. Plus, Douglas<br />

has written a piece titled “Beauty”<br />

about the property and what it means<br />

to be part of its history. The first line<br />

begins “The beauty is not in the bricks.<br />

It is in the story that only they could<br />

know.”<br />

The takeaway from all of their<br />

efforts, Kim says, “Is the privilege it is<br />

to be a part of the history and legacy<br />

of this place.”<br />

After all, she says, “Kitchens will<br />

come and go but the stories that are<br />

created in the kitchen will last a lifetime.”<br />

11 A framed print of the home honors the original owner, Samuel Jeffery.<br />

12 The front façade shows the addition of two front porches that were<br />

added to the home’s original structure. 13 Near the entrance to the dining<br />

room, a freezer is concealed by cabinetry panels. The refrigerator is on the<br />

hearth room side of the space, just inside the archway<br />

Kitchen renovation adds function<br />

and flair to shotgun-style home<br />

BY LEE RHODES | Photos by Samantha Rickman<br />

➻<br />

housetrends magazine 31

As historic homes go, Brad Stoll and Catherine Jopling’s residence in German Village is<br />

not atypical. A quintessential shotgun-style home, the 1880s-era structure has undergone<br />

multiple changes throughout its lifespan. There have been piecemeal updates over<br />

the years. Layers of flooring were added on top of each other, representing literal layers<br />

of history. An addition of square footage took place in the late 1970s.<br />

32 housetrends.com


Despite the changes, it’s no surprise that<br />

the kitchen, while long on charm, was short<br />

on usable space. For Brad and Catherine,<br />

who are both avid cooks and love to entertain,<br />

a renovation was in order. But the<br />

room’s narrow footprint—one room wide,<br />

half a block long—presented unique challenges.<br />

“The room ahead of the kitchen represented<br />

one time period, and the room behind<br />

it represented another, so the kitchen had<br />

to serve as a transition and connect rooms<br />

that are stylistically very different from one<br />

another,” explains Catherine.<br />

Making the connection<br />

To honor the historic legacy of one space and<br />

maintain the more modern vibe in the other,<br />

as well as achieve continuity throughout, the<br />

couple engaged Tyler Swartzmiller, principal<br />

designer with Haus Studio. Working with<br />

residential contractor DelBiondo Homes,<br />

he was able to maximize functional space,<br />

upgrade cabinetry, incorporate modern<br />

appliances, improve upon items that aren’t<br />

readily visible, like duct work, and enhance<br />

everything that is readily visible, like the<br />

color palette.<br />

Catherine admits she was initially drawn<br />

to multiple colors and patterns, but Tyler<br />

encouraged her to tone it down slightly in<br />

an effort to think of what future buyers may<br />

find appealing. Thus the matte white of the<br />

appliances became the jumping off point<br />

for the cabinetry and the rest of the room,<br />

including the green of the island, Sherwin<br />

Williams’ Shade Grown.<br />

“We wanted to add a bold color but nothing<br />

that would be offensive,” explains Tyler.<br />

“Greens, blues and earthy tones are very<br />

appealing to most buyers. They create an<br />

environment you want to be in.”<br />

Touches of the green can be found<br />

throughout, such as the trim on one window.<br />

The light, bright cabinetry lining the<br />

kitchen’s perimeter is a putty hue and,<br />

though the room has height, the couple<br />

opted against a full second row of cabinets.<br />

Tyler suggested a trey ceiling with beams, as<br />

well as half-cabinets with clear-glass lighting,<br />

creating a feeling of loftiness without<br />

the wasted space that sometimes comes with<br />

high cabinets.<br />

Topping it off<br />

The countertops are Cambria quartz, which is harder than granite or marble,<br />

making it more durable and less likely to scratch, chip, or stain. Tyler worked<br />

closely with the couple to choose the right designs and finishes for their project,<br />

settling on Ironsbridge in a gloss finish, giving the countertops a cream base,<br />

and Charlestown in a matte finish, adding depth.<br />

“Ironsbridge, often used as a marble alternative, has all of the beauty with<br />

none of the maintenance,” explains Marni Cercone from Cambria. “With a<br />

neutral background of whites and creams and veins of grey, Ironsbridge merges<br />

warm and cool tones, so it makes a strong design statement.”<br />

It’s also maintenance free, so it doesn’t require regular sealing and polishing;<br />

homeowners can wipe it down with warm water and mild soap. “Cambria is<br />

nonporous and nonabsorbent so it won’t harbor any harmful bacteria,” adds<br />

Marni. “Especially now, a clean surface is a must.”<br />

The kitchen flooring is comprised of cork, which is comfortable on weary<br />

cooks’ feet. It also serves to bridge the gap between the historic wood floors in<br />

the front of the home to the more modern flooring in the back. The drum lights<br />

above the island create a pleasing ambience, particularly in the evenings. The<br />

under-cabinet lighting is bluetooth controlled and, as Brad explains, “It’s already<br />

on in the morning when we come down, and we can switch to dim light in the<br />

evening when we’re relaxing. It creates a nice contrast.”<br />

Nod to the neighborhood<br />

There are numerous other small details that not only add panache but also<br />

honor the classic details of the original older home. The double herringbone<br />

backsplash, for instance, matches the home’s exposed brick and the sidewalks<br />

that are signature to the German Village. Other details? Some drawers have<br />

multiple tiers, and the pots and pans are separated by dowel dividers for easier<br />

storage. Not to be outdone by functionality, there are unique aesthetic details as<br />

well. For instance, the island drawers contain a walnut accent with a soft grain.<br />

“When you open those drawers, it gives you a warm feeling,” explains Tyler.<br />

“Small details can really bring the entire kitchen together. It’s important to think<br />

outside the box.”<br />

If thinking outside the box is trendy, so too is thinking beyond the countertop.<br />

Marni explains that Cambria is being used for everything from shelving<br />

and shower walls to furniture and fireplace surrounds. Other trends? Using a<br />

“chunkier” edge profile on islands to make a statement. She’s also seeing light<br />

wood cabinetry and flooring, which provides a fresh look; a mix of metal finishes<br />

on hardware, lighting, and hoods; and matte finishes across all materials.<br />

Finally, naturalism is trending. Homeowners are currently eschewing the<br />

white, sterile kitchens and embracing wood tones and earthy hues. “After all,”<br />

concludes, Tyler, “People are spending more time in their houses these days, so<br />

they want them to be inviting.”<br />

Ohio homeowner never misses a movie in at-home theatre<br />

BY SARAH J. DILLS | Photos by Dawn M. Smith<br />

Welcome to the new normal. Thanks to sheltering in place, social distancing and business closures, we are all<br />

spending much more of our time inside our homes. As a result of all of this staying at home, the audio-video<br />

industry is booming. Homeowners want faster internet, larger screens, more channels…and Troy Hanson and<br />

his team at Hanson Audio Video can hardly keep up. ➻<br />

housetrends magazine 39


“Connectivity is more important than ever,”<br />

Hanson, owner of the company he started<br />

in 1999, explains. “If anyone has lost their<br />

job due to this pandemic, they should look<br />

into the construction industry. I know of<br />

companies with over year-long back logs.<br />

People are stuck at home, so they want to<br />

be comfortable.”<br />

Theatre closed? No problem.<br />

Luckily one Cincinnati homeowner<br />

completed her home theatre renovation<br />

last year. Hanson was introduced to her<br />

through Doni Flanigan, an interior designer<br />

who was working to renovate the lower level<br />

of the home. While Flanigan is a master<br />

of materials, fabrics and color; he knows<br />

Hanson is the expert of what’s happening<br />

behind the scenes.<br />

“We do a 3D CAD design of the room to<br />

scale, because we know what seating will<br />

work best in the space, we know the best<br />

layout of the room for optimal viewing and<br />

audio; but then we turn it over to Doni for<br />

the finishes,” Hanson says. “Our work is<br />

behind the scenes.”<br />

Where the magic happens<br />

And there is a lot going on behind those<br />

fabric panels. Hanson works with a<br />

company that tests fabrics for their sound<br />

capabilities, and wall material is selected for<br />

the best sound quality. There are also foam<br />

panels behind all of the fabric panels in the<br />

room. And that’s just for the sound quality.<br />

When Hanson sat down with the<br />

homeowner for what he calls a “Dream<br />

Session,” she had an existing, out-dated<br />

system she wanted replaced; but she had<br />

no idea of the capabilities available today.<br />

“We gave her a 160-inch screen with<br />

an 8k projector,” Hanson describes. “4k<br />

technology is eight million pixels. This is<br />

four times that. It is literally like looking<br />

through a window into whatever you’re<br />

watching.”<br />

The homeowner agrees, “Sometimes the<br />

movies look like they’re in 3D.”<br />

As for the theatre’s name, Starlite,<br />

the homeowner’s son selected the name<br />

because of the twinkle light detail on the<br />

ceiling that looks like stars.<br />

Beautiful Bedrooms and Baths<br />

All year long we are celebrating 20 years of showcasing spectacular spaces<br />

Horizontal planks of engineered hardwood flooring extend a rustic<br />

feel onto the walls in this guest bedroom. Because the boards are<br />

applied to the wall that’s visible from the room’s entry, this warm<br />

treatment creates an immediate, eye-catching focal point. »<br />

Charm of the Century<br />

Warm pendant lights, neutral colors, and large area rugs soften this charming<br />

bedroom space that is perfectly appropriate for the 100-plus-year-oldhome.<br />

The suite addition also includes space for an oversized bathroom<br />

complete with soapstone countertops, a spacious soaking tub and a large<br />

shower.<br />

Night Visions<br />

Sliding glass doors off this bedroom lead to an<br />

living room allowing a view of festive homerun<br />

fireworks. Even the accompanying black and white<br />

master bath has a spectacular view, but remote controlled<br />

shades offer privacy when needed. »<br />

French Flair<br />

The designer’s goal for this guest bedroom, which was featured in<br />

the Dayton Philharmonic 2009 Designers’ Show House, was to create<br />

a restful retreat for relaxing and sleeping. The soft colors, fabric<br />

choices and painted headboard give the space a bit of French flavor.<br />

Outside In<br />

In this owner’s retreat, a wall of windows facing the woods was<br />

carefully planned to make the tranquil scenery the main feature<br />

of this symmetrically balanced room. The adjoining bathroom<br />

features a floating island vanity—two vanities positioned as<br />

mirror images—and an oversized shower with a high window<br />

that brings in daylight and a bit of green. »<br />

HOW TO SELECT A REMODELER<br />

Word-of-Mouth Referrals are Key<br />

The best way to find qualified, professional help is through<br />

word-of-mouth referrals. The National Association of the<br />

Remodeling Industry - NARI - is a great resource to find<br />

educated professionals. Common sources for qualified<br />

remodelers or contractors include:<br />

■ Relatives/friends/neighbors<br />

■ Business colleagues<br />

■ Lenders<br />

■ Real estate agents<br />

■ Local material supplier (lumber yards, specialty<br />

product providers, etc.)<br />

Seven Tips to Find a<br />

Qualified Remodeler<br />

1. Stay Local<br />

2. Follow Local Building Codes<br />

3. Check for License and<br />

Insurance<br />

4. Check for Violations and<br />

Complaints<br />

5. Compare Apples with Apples<br />

6. Be Informed<br />

7. Always Check References<br />

WHY HIRE A NARI<br />

CERTIFIED PROFESSIONAL?<br />

Remodeling a home is a big decision and as a<br />

homeowner you want to be sure the remodeling<br />

professional you hire is qualified to perform the work to<br />

the highest level of professionalism, integrity and quality.<br />

Hiring a NARI Certified Professional Assures:<br />

■ Your remodeling professional has been vetted by the<br />

foremost remodeling industry association.<br />

■ Your remodeling professional has met strict standards<br />

for remodeling expertise, project management and<br />

professional conduct.<br />

■ You are selecting an expert in the field, capable of<br />

completing your project to industry management and<br />

quality best practices.<br />

■ You are entrusting your project to a dedicated<br />

professional who is committed to his/her craft through<br />

continuing education and professional development.<br />

Knowledge Experience<br />

NARI has developed the Accredited Remodeling<br />

Company program to help you easily identify remodeling<br />

companies who have met the industry standard for<br />

remodeling business management and operations.<br />

NARI Certified Professionals have demonstrated their<br />

commitment to excellence and to validating their<br />

knowledge annually. NARI offers eight certifications that<br />

recognize that knowledge.<br />

The experience that remodelers gain from working with<br />

materials, tools and solving problems on a day-to-day<br />

basis is invaluable. A pro can anticipate potential issues<br />

and have a backup plan just in case.<br />

Risk Management<br />

In order to be a member in good standing, NARI<br />

company members must hold the appropriate licenses<br />

and insurance as dictated by local municipal and state<br />

laws. Make sure your contractor company is also bonded<br />

and carries insurance for their crew and staff.<br />

Quality Is Cheapest in the Long Run<br />

It may be tempting to renovate your bathroom or<br />

kitchen, but in the long run hiring a qualified remodeler<br />

may save you money.<br />

Homeowners embark upon a DIY project with the best<br />

of intentions only to realize they do not have the tools<br />

required, know-how needed and available time to see the<br />

project through to completion.<br />

A key differentiator for NARI members is that they<br />

follow the code of ethics. To learn more about NARI’s<br />

purpose, values and code of ethics visit our website:<br />

serving piece. Here are a few new products that just might serve as the jumping-off point you<br />
