This past winter, chef, food activist, and cookbook author Marcus Samuelsson and model Maya Haile were expecting their second child when they embarked on the renovation of a 1970s shingled cottage in Sag Harbor, NY; their plates were full and they wanted to get the project done quickly. Enter Richard Anuszkiewicz, creative director for Monogram Luxury Appliances, who helped complete the renovation on short order.
Richard took cues from Marcus's fashion sense and cultural references: “Marcus is not afraid to be bold; his style is all about layering in pattern and color.”
The kitchen is fitted with Monogram’s 48-inch Duel-Fuel Professional Range.
Artistic Tile’s Inverso Verde Field Dimensional 6-by-18-inch fluted ceramic tiles makes a bold backdrop.
Maya and Marcus test drive the new setup by making pancakes.
At Marcus’s request, the island is inset with a Monogram 36-inch Induction Cooktop that’s perfectly flush, so it can be used for serving.
