San Diego Kitchen Design - Coronado Island

Read About Our Project Featured in 'Iconic Life' Magazine


Featured in Iconic Life magazine, this Coronado Island, ultra high-end estate embodies innovation and creative design at its highest. The exquisite 11,715 square foot home underwent a contemporary redesign; a true masterpiece in modern architectural and interior design. Located in the stunning San Diego Bay, the Coronado house offers breathtaking 180-degree views of the surrounding waters. This luxurious estate stands out as a boundary-pushing modern design that highlights the Coronado community. See how Leicht CA facilitated this incredible transformation.

The Statement Staircase

As you enter the home, the horizon of Coronado Bay greets you. The exemplary entrance showcases a stunning view of dark titanium travertine stone walls. This unique rock mimics the look of natural coastal rocks. The centerpiece of the house is the stunning steel statement staircase. Crafted by Leicht, this unique work of art in contemporary engineering and design was manufactured in Oregon. The massive staircase was transported in pieces to Coronado and constructed on-site. Its incredible journey to fruition shows just how extraordinary this construction was. The staircase features cladded limestone steps and a sleek glass railing, artfully blending the home’s aesthetics. The limestone steps add a touch of natural elegance, while the glass railing opens up the space, giving an incredibly spacious feel. The combination of elements provides a striking visual look that ties together the home's design themes.

Leicht CA’s Large Modern Kitchen Design

Leicht CA's design expertise shines in the kitchen of the Coronado home, where a large island serves as a central feature. This elongated island bar naturally blends into the room, serving as a workspace and a bar, making it perfect for the family's needs. Every appliance, including the large refrigerator, is fully integrated, providing an elegant and sleek European kitchen look. Adding to the kitchen's allure are chandeliers designed to resemble sea bubbles. These unique lighting elements draw the mind and imagination to the ocean outside, integrating the coastal theme into the interior design. The chandeliers cast a soft, ambient light, enhancing the serene and sophisticated atmosphere. The kitchen's gorgeous German cabinets are crafted in Synthia wood laminate with a frosty white matte finish. The modern, elegant aesthetic is enhanced by Leicht's Contino Handleless Kitchen Cabinets, featuring sleek, functional cabinets. Drawers and cabinets are fitted with LED lighting connected to a state-of-the-art smart system, offering comfort and sophistication. The homeowner's delight with this exquisite craftsmanship is palpable:

"I cannot begin to express my delight with the exquisite craftsmanship of my kitchen. Stepping into my newly renovated space was like stepping into a dream. Every detail radiates elegance. Cooking in this space is so enjoyable." 

Furniture and Color Palette

The interior design of the estate features a neutral color palette that emulates the colors and textures of a sandy beach, creating a serene and cohesive environment. The open space plan ensures an uninterrupted flow throughout the home, maximizing the stunning bay views from every room.

“It is a very open floor plan, and every space connects. They all visually play together harmoniously,” says Arianna Noppenberger, interior designer and creative director of the Coronado estate. “The home itself is a masterpiece of modern design. Using clean lines and expansive floor-to-ceiling windows, we wanted to juxtapose an organic shape on one side and a very linear shape on the street side. What faces the bay is organic, and what faces the street is minimalist and linear. We created a space with panoramic views encompassing the water, Coronado Bridge, and San Diego’s skyline.”

The Coronado Island home is a true testament to the power of innovative design and meticulous craftsmanship. From the stunning steel staircase to the elegant, fully integrated kitchen, Leicht CA has created a space that is both functional and breathtakingly beautiful. The estate stands as a beacon of modern luxury, offering inspiration for those dreaming of their contemporary renovation. Ready to begin your own modern redesign?
