The kitchen table is always an important part of a family home – it’s where families eat, work, do homework, laugh, cry and tell each other stories so thought usually goes into its acquisition. The kitchen table in Constanze von Randow and John O’Sullivan’s home in Douglas, Cork, was in fact specially made and already has a story of its own.
It’s put together from scaffolding boards and metals used in the renovation of the couple’s home and, unusually for building work, it was such a happy, stress-free experience that they are thrilled to have this permanent reminder in their house, created thanks to the collaboration between themselves, architect, James Crowley of foley + crowley architects (FCA), and builder John Cronin.
