Design at home

BEHIND THE DESIGN
THE HEART
OF THE HOME
The kitchen, they say, is the heart of any
home, and we pay close attention to it.
We thoughtfully designed this kitchen
to meet the homeowners’ daily needs.
No cabinet was overlooked. Every item
within the space has a designated place.
Oh yes, even the wine! Adding productspecific
inserts to your cabinetry is a
simple way to make the space more
functional—not to mention you can store
twice as much in the same amount of
space! No need to make room for a snack
grocery haul.
Large base-cabinet drawers provide
excellent storage for larger appliances,
pots and pans, serving dishes, and even
dinner plates! Dinner plates in a drawer?
Yes! It’s a thing. We designed a large
pantry here next to the panel-ready
fridge to keep baking and dry goods
readily available. Because there are no
windows in this townhome kitchen, we
designed a plate-rack upper cabinet to sit
above the sink. It’s not only cute but also
super functional, keeping that precious
counter space clear.
The cooktop is flanked with oil and spice
pullouts for the home chef’s convenience.
Food tastes so much better when the
ingredients are beautifully organized, am
I right? A mint island drops down into
the homeowner’s existing table, which
we altered slightly to attach to the island
and create an eat-in kitchen area. This
lowered table also provides a great prep
area for the aspiring little chefs in our
lives!
