"We're excited to be partnering with Elle DEcor on this design project and look forward to seeing it brought to life in both this showhouse setting and the pages of the magazine," notes Juliet Johnson, manager of brand experience for Jenn-Air. "Considering Elle DEcor's luxury orientation and stature in the world of design, Jenn-Air is a perfect fit."
The latest Jenn-Air® line includes high performance wall ovens with the most powerful convection elements on the market. An advanced 7-inch, glass-touch screen on the ovens is the largest of its kind and features a touch-anywhere, full color LCD display with an interactive, image-driven Culinary Center that helps cooks achieve desired cooking results. Pro-Style® gas and dual-fuel freestanding ranges, available in 30- 36- and 48-inch configurations, provide all the power needed for high temperature cooking with 20,000 BTU PowerBurners, the highest in the industry*. Select range models also feature the advanced 7-inch color LCD touch screens for easy access to a host of features organized in an intuitive tab format.
Additional appliances in the collection include downdraft cooktops available in a unique duct-free configuration and built-in microwave drawers. Fully-integrated flush built-in refrigerators and reengineered dishwashers also are part of the latest Jenn-Air brand collection.
"The kitchen was designed for those who enjoy entertaining and want high end appliances that deliver on both performance and looks," says interior designer Palmer Weiss. "The feel of the kitchen is clean without being sterile. I think that you want an uncluttered workspace in the kitchen so I've added pops of quality details, such as a mosaic tile backsplash from Ann Sacks that add warmth and personality without being too busy."
In addition to the completely remodeled kitchen and breakfast area, the five-bedroom, six-bath home features three floors of designed spaces including a main floor with a grand entrance foyer and spacious living and dining rooms. The upstairs features a master bedroom suite, children's bedrooms and a large home office. The lower level is almost completely dedicated to a large, multi-media family room.
The 1911 home has undergone a massive renovation to bring it into the 21st century. Sustainable elements have been woven into the entire project including insulation, heating, a smart lighting system with LED lights and Silestone countertops. Where possible, original materials - such as flooring, doors and fixtures - were preserved and re-used. The home is also the first house in San Francisco to utilize SRS Energy solar panels that are the same size and shape of the terra cotta roof tiles.
Since the introduction of the first self-ventilated cooktop in 1961 and downdraft ventilated range in 1965, Jenn-Air brand has consistently grown its reputation as a technology and design innovator. Its selection of style options includes two distinct stainless steel collections and two cutting edge finishes: Floating Glass and Oiled Bronze. From downdraft cooktops, wall ovens and professional-style ranges to dishwashers, refrigerators and such entertaining essentials as warming drawers, built-in ice machines and wine cellars, Jenn-Air brand offers a complete line of major kitchen appliances.
