Recently architect Greg Dutton, of Midland Architecture, wrote to share his latest project: the renovation of the Columbus, Ohio, home he shares with his wife, Liz, and their two young children. Their prairie-style house was designed by Florence Kenyon Hayden Rector, Ohio’s first female architect, and our favorite part of the redone interiosr? The kitchen.

We placed our kitchen table in the center of the kitchen, in the spot where you would traditionally put an island,” says Greg.

“All of the windows are in the original locations," he adds.

Note the two different countertop materials, Bianco Gioia marble on one side, white oak on the other.

The cabinets installed during a ’90s remodel were replaced with cabinets designed by Greg himself and fabricated by local Amish builders.

The cabinets were all painted Farrow & Ball “Hay”; the walls are painted Farrow & Ball “Lime White.”
