CLEVER USE OF SPACE

The Casework design team started with new kitchen layouts that would provide efficiency in cooking and storage, as well as a cozy place for two to eat. By removing a little-used hallway closet, we were able to increase the kitchen work area and even create enough clearance for a small island. One of the most used features of the kitchen is a tall cabinet that sits on the counter in the corner of the kitchen. The fluted glass doors push back into the cabinet to reveal shelving and an open workspace for making coffee and tea.

In the new plan, an upholstered curved booth takes the place of an awkward dining nook and highlights the view of the trees outside through original leaded glass windows. Warm natural materials in both the kitchen and guest bath including walnut, soapstone, and terracotta tile create a space that is minimal and relaxed, yet sophisticated.
