12 michigan design center @home 2019 As part of a recent kitchen and laundry room renovation in a historic Albert Kahn home, Kathleen McGovern of Kathleen McGovern Studio of Interior Design incorporated open shelves to modernize the otherwise traditional space. Part utilitarian and part decorative, these floating shelves replace cabinets on a kitchen wall that was better left without them. The walnut shelves were secured into the studs when the kitchen was rebuilt, and each is designed to hold 50 pounds. Photo by Jeff Garland
