Peter Salerno’s Custom Tin Range Hoods: The Process

One of Peter Salerno’s signature design elements is his use of reclaimed tin from historic locations to create stunning custom range hoods and ceiling pieces in his award-winning kitchen designs. But how does this world-class designer take a raw material that’s seemingly headed from the scrap heap, and transform it into a luxurious statement piece?

Peter Salerno Inc. custom kitchen designs have utilized reclaimed tin in a myriad of ways. From majestic soffit designs to custom refrigerator doors to custom cabinetry, Peter and his team have shown their love for (and mastery of) reclaimed tin in design. But perhaps the hallmark of Peter Salerno’s tin kitchen design features is his custom tin range hoods.

You can see the reclaimed tin from Route 66 used to create the custom La Cornue range hood and Swarovski crystal studded recessed tin ceiling in the Peter Salerno Inc. showroom in Wyckoff, NJ. Reclaimed tin from a hotel in Chicago was used in the “Jewel Box” kitchen, named 2014 Best Small Kitchen by NKBA and a People’s Choice Kitchen for 2014 by HGTV.

Walking through the creation process of Peter Salerno’s custom tin range hoods and recessed ceilings truly awe-inspiring. Peter knows the background of every piece of reclaimed tin that he works with – whether it’s a gas station on Route 66, or a hotel in Chicago, or a reclaimed tin roof.

Peter and his staff of artisans take great pride in turning the everyday into the extraordinary, and there is much to be said for taking a piece of tin once considered “scrap” and turning it into personalized treasure in your very own award-winning kitchen.

It was the third time since 2010 that Peter Salerno has been honored with a NKBA Best Kitchen award. This kitchen was especially dear to Peter Salerno and his staff, and the design (which is being referred to as the “Jewel Box”) is being lauded as exquisite by a vast array of interior design and kitchen design media outlets.

The 2014 Best Kitchen, Small Kitchen Category award was presented by the NKBA at the annual KBIS convention in Las Vegas in February 2014. Due to inclement weather, Peter Salerno and his team were unable to reach the 2014 KBIS convention, so it was an amazing surprise to be honored with this award.

The fact that this kitchen design is loved by not just the owner but the interior design industry and fans of kitchen design is both flattering and humbling.
