&body=In the old kitchen, a large window overlooked San Francisco Bay, but the glare was blinding. This remodel put the right amount of light in the right places: a smaller sink window and new openings in two other walls reduced glare by balancing the light in the room. A tall glass block backsplash at the stove draws in south light and creates a strong vertical element that accentuates the vaulted ceiling, and we added an operable skylight at the back wall over glass shelves. We removed a section of wall between the kitchen and dining room, and new dining room windows frame the world’s best view.&
