SIMPLICITY RULES
"We kept it simple – even
the fixtures in the kitchen,"
says McKay, pointing out
mid-century modern flour-
ishes such as the chrome
light and industrial Bertoia
wire chairs. The walnut din-
ing room table blends in
seamlessly with the
cabinets.
A DASH OF DRAMA
"I love lighting and I take
it really seriously," says
McKay who uses different
pendant lights in every
room. "It's a sculpture,
it's an opportunity." Behind
the grand dining room
chandelier, an abstract
painting offers a dash of
drama in the serene space.
