In this historic West Hartford kitchen, Amber Marques Interiors revitalized a Vanderbilt-era home with a design that bridges tradition and modern living. The reimagined floor plan opened the space for a built-in refrigerator and pantry, bringing light and flow to what was once a compact layout. Each design decision reflects respect for the home’s heritage — from custom-matched cabinet latches inspired by the original dining room to the exquisite walnut-lined pantry. The result is a kitchen that celebrates craftsmanship, history, and everyday elegance.
