We've seen so many great installs of our hardware over the years, but a special project that often comes to mind is one from our own Jessica Burne Davis (yes, there are two Jess Davises here at Nest...more on that here.)

Jess, or "JB", as our Nest family calls her, is our Director of Sales & Operations. In early 2015 she did a DIY kitchen "makeover", which included a cabinet refresh with our Facet-01 pulls and Facet-02 knobs.

Ultimately, in 2016, Jess took on a full-blown home renovation, again adorning her kitchen, pantry, & office with our hardware. If you've been a longtime follower, you might remember her blogging about it. Either way, walk with us down memory lane!

BEFORE

We'll start with the "Before". Golden orange 80's cabinets which were fine--yet quite outdated.

Fast forwarding to her 2016 home renovation, JB refinished her wood floors, updated her paint scheme, and fully reno'd her kitchen and pantry/office area-- and the result is breathtaking!

KITCHEN

And here it is! The whole space together is just, wow, and we love how our warm satin brass hardware both sparkles against and brings together the contrasting white cabinets and dark wood floors. 

Jess chose Facet series for the kitchen for its versatility. She loved using the different size F-01s (there's the standard F-01 and the elongated F-01L) with the knobs. She knew that every cabinet/drawer face had its perfect mate. 

Jess also used this hardware on her appliances (though now we offer and recommend the F-01L-18 for appliances). Her hidden dishwasher and refrigerator look seamless using the same cabinet facing throughout. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

If our hardware isn't the star of Jess' kitchen (though clearly we think it is), then it is ultimately her Bertazzoni Heritage range that deserves the spotlight. By now in 2021, this stunner has created countless delectable meals, with credit to Jess too!

 

 

We also love how well our hardware complements the brass accents on the range. 

 

 

OFFICE/PANTRY

Now on to the office/pantry! The mixed-use space is adjacent to the kitchen and Jess wanted it to feel separate but still connected. The Classic series in the same satin brass finish gives a touch of glamour while still coordinating with the kitchen.

 

 

 

 

 

 

The Classic-02 is the perfect pull for these pantry/office cabinet doors, while the Classic-01 gives a unique, statement look for the lower desk door. Both of these pulls look great as a series, viewed altogether.

Probably the best part about Jess' 2016 renovation is that, 5 years later, it's still stylish and beautiful. That's why we call one of these series a "Classic", after all.
