Lighten up!
Katie Lake Photography; This dark, uninspiring kitchen and adjacent area was transformed into a bright and open space. A large granite island is the focal point for this gathering place. Updated custom cabinetry that extends all the way down to the counter top allows for hidden storage of unsightly appliances, while the glass-paneled doors add visual interest to display favorite pieces. The arched detail on the custom range hood is repeated in the openings to the dining and living areas. Special touches include a warmer drawer more conveniently located at hip level and glass accent tile above a gourmet stove top. Rich plank flooring throughout connects the kitchen with the adjacent mudroom and laundry room. A friends and family entrance was added into the laundry/mudroom and storage abounds with a pantry and cubbies for all.
