Proof of a well-considered space: Years after a remodel, its design stills feels fresh and exciting. That’s how we feel about Cold Press Gallery, an apartment and exhibition space housed in a former Methodist meeting hall from the 1800s.
The cream-colored building is situated on a double lot in the center of the village.
The brass mirror is by Morie Nishimura, and the photograph (resting on the floor) is by Anne Ten Donkelaar.
The front door opens into a gallery room; there are two such rooms on this floor (you can spy the other through the door).
A collection of ceramics are showcased in the simple built-in shelves. In the foreground, a display of spoons by woodworker Marie Eklund rests on a table.
A central hall on this floor leads to a modest office and, just beyond, a kitchen.
The ground-level kitchen with a window into the office.
White walls, the perennial favorite of galleries, offer the perfect backdrop for artwork.
Undressed windows let in abundant light in the living room of the upstairs apartment.
A wood table and stool by carpenter Karin Ekwall anchors the kitchen.
Streamlined under-counter cabinets from deVOL, a slate countertop with integrated dish drainer, and a single wall-mounted shelf, all along one wall, make up the kitchen.
Just off the kitchen is the bedroom. Here, a canopy bed is flanked by two hazel-wood chairs by Sebastian Cox.
A peg rail, a Remodelista storage favorite, bisects one wall of the bedroom.
