Artem Chigvintsev’s Los Angeles Home and Kitchen Remodel

Artem Chigvintsev is a professional dancer and choreographer known well from television shows like Dancing with the Stars (which he just won), So You Think You Can Dance and Strictly Come Dancing. Last year he completed the renovation of his kitchen, an open-concept design that now includes our Satin Brass Gantry and Towson Prep Faucet, which he calls “pieces of jewelry.”

Artem describes the kitchen as “the heart of the house and the place for entertainment,” and requested a big waterfall island and open shelving rather than cabinets to make the room feel more spacious. While Artem found his old kitchen to be outdated and not his style, the new space is modern and elegant, boasting a luxurious blend of white and grey tile, marble countertops and brass details. The color palette combined with brassy hardware accents is an aesthetic that flows throughout the rest of the home as well.

As an avid cook, Artem describes the oven, stove and faucets as the kitchen’s most-used features and advises other kitchen renovators to commit to researching quality products before buying.
