Custom Kitchen Details
On January 1 we shared a beautiful newly-designed kitchen with custom cabinetry. Now let’s look closer at some of the fine details that make it functional and gorgeous.
In our redesigned kitchen, we moved the refrigerator to a different wall and used a Sub-Zero paneled fridge for a cleaner look.
Adding lighted glass top cabinets allows beautiful collectibles and infrequently-used kitchen items to be featured.
Extending the cabinets to the ceiling is a modern look homeowners crave, along with a beautiful slide-out storage pantry.
Underneath the sink now holds pull-out drawers, making access to supplies a breeze.
A custom bread storage drawer with built-in cutting surface keeps bread, pastries, and other baked goods fresh and delicious.
Use every space with this pull-out spice rack near the range.
You can also see the custom under-cabinet lighting and the row of power strips against the wall. Never move counter items to reach a plug again!
What would normally be a dead end under an L-shaped counter is fully utilized by creating a cabinet near the stools. Great for items that are used infrequently but need to be at eye level, like vases and special glassware.
Final detail: This kitchen features two sinks! The bar counter now holds a smaller sink for cocktails, food and drinks prep.
