Kitchens
ABOVE TOP: This kitchen and bar were designed as a great entertaining space, with the bar counter's seating and storage—complete with a wine cooler—proving both
fun and functional. The island features both induction and gas cooking, while the linear glass mosaic backsplash adds a bit of glimmer. This easy-maintenance kitchen is
completed with an engineered quartz countertop, brushed nickel and stainless steel fixtures, and a copper bar sink.
ABOVE BOTTOM: A custom pass-through window and counter connect the kitchen and backyard, allowing the host to easily handle large parties, while the dropped
ceiling and accent lighting add visual interest. The materials, fixtures, and design details make this a highly functional cook's kitchen.
