Four years ago, Deborah Jones bought an empty live-work space in the historic Jackson Brewery in the heart of Folsom's club scene. She needed it to function in a very specific way: to accommodate up to a dozen people working there, to clean up quickly and be a light, neutral background.
Jones is an award-winning professional photographer who has collaborated with chefs and writers on more than 30 cookbooks, including five cookbooks for Thomas Keller of the French Laundry. She has also collaborated on cookbooks for chefs Cat Cora, Michael Chiarello and Mourad Lahlou, and her commercial clients include Williams-Sonoma, All-Clad and Kashi cereals.
The space had plenty of natural light thanks to huge windows on two sides. But it had to be versatile - a place where stylists developed recipes while assistants arranged cables and props and clients observed. Jones brought in San Francisco designer Nilus de Matran who says: "It had to work for the Deborah who lives here and the Deborah who works here."
They demolished the existing kitchen, which was just an 8-by-12-foot alcove and extended it forward into the 900-square-foot room to make an 8-by-20-foot space costing between $20,000 to $25,000.
An easy but dramatic change: painting the brick and rusty beams three shades of white. Says de Matran: "You have to vary the white with warmer and cooler shades and satin and eggshell. It activates the space."
Creating counter space was paramount - even the assistant's desk converts to a work space and the counter at the front is movable.
To define the kitchen area, shelves were hung from the ceilings so "when you walked in, you are not walking into the whole space," says de Matran. Two refrigerators and two sinks serve both chefs and food stylists; the smaller sink has a pot filler and supplies filtered water for the studio.
Everything was custom made except the Ikea drawers and cabinets, some of which were shortened to fit under the counter space. The floor is poured composite, a material typically used to level subfloors.
Because there is no gas in the building, Jones took a tip from a few chefs and chose an induction cooktop from BSC Appliances - "it just boils so fast." Countertops and backsplash are Corian from West Bay Plastics and have resisted all wine and food stains. Hardware is Dornbracht - "everything you touch must be good quality."
And for the Deborah Jones who lives there, a luxurious greige Ligne Roset sofa bed - the duvet is stored in Ikea cabinets hidden by the floor-to-ceiling mirror.
Jones says: "Somehow Nilus reduced my previous studio of 3,000 square feet to an industrial space of 900 square feet that feels personal. He's made a wonderful place to hold this beautiful light."
