When it’s party time, the
oversized island is covered
in platters of food. Guests
bring covered dishes, and
Anne cooks with her son,
Jon Stevens, of Creative
Carpentry in Hampstead. Jon
fabricated the 10-by-5-foot,
live-edge, red oak, double-slab
dining table. The river
of resin that runs through
it mimics the ocean. It’s teem-ing
with shark teeth, shells
and sea glass Anne collected
from the beach.
The epoxy was layered in
three stages, Jon says. On
the bottom is a layer of blue
resin on which he laid an
array of LED lights and
sprinkled the souvenirs. The
top layer — agitated with
oxygen to create bubbles —
produces the effect of a living
ocean, he says, with sunlight
streaming through water.
The 800-pound tabletop is
secured by a welded metal
frame that anchors a sea blue-green
rug.
Subtle toe kick lighting
beneath the lower cabinets
and lighting behind glazed
cupboards at ceiling height
add luster to the predomi-nantly
neutral palette — soft
beige, high-gloss taupe and
gray leather — creating
layers of depth.
For his parents’ home, Jon
Stevens of Creative Carpentry
in Hampstead joined two red
oak slabs with epoxy to create
the dining room table. Shared
faucets unify both sinks —
one overlooking the Atlantic,
the other anchored by a
composite Dekton countertop.
