JUNE 2024
In an Architectural Digest feature titled “11 Retro Kitchens We Love From AD PRO Directory Designers,” Jocelyn Chiappone, principal of Digs Design Company, showcases her expertise in blending vibrant patterns, rich textures, and bold color choices to create a standout kitchen design. Known for her ability to infuse personality into spaces, Chiappone designed a Shingle-style Cape Cod vacation home kitchen that feels both nostalgic and fresh.
For this project, Chiappone embraced a “Palm Beach meets Cape Cod” aesthetic, creating a lively yet sophisticated atmosphere that perfectly suits the home’s coastal setting. The airy kitchen seamlessly connects to the living and dining rooms, enhancing the flow of the space while maintaining its unique character. She selected quartz countertops for a clean, timeless look and incorporated striking pendant lights from The Urban Electric Company to add a touch of elegance.
Chiappone believes that a well-designed kitchen should evoke emotion and create a sense of joy. “I wanted this space to feel happy and inviting, a true reflection of the homeowners’ personality and the fun, relaxed vibe of their vacation retreat,” she explains. Her keen eye for mixing retro influences with modern functionality allows the space to feel timeless yet dynamic.
This feature in Architectural Digest underscores Digs Design Company’s reputation for creating bespoke interiors that blend classic style with contemporary flair. Chiappone’s ability to craft kitchens that are both beautiful and highly functional makes her a sought-after designer for those looking to elevate their homes with thoughtful, high-impact design.
