Gathering Room

The Challenge: To find space for double ovens, a full refrigerator and full freezer, extra refrigerator drawers, a wine chiller, separate ice maker, and a second prep sink. The Solution: By capturing unused space from the living room, these clients – a large family that loves to entertain – were able to locate new double ovens within their new work triangle. A large island with a black antique, distressed-painted finish and an Iroko wood countertop now houses refrigerator drawers and a prep sink. This island and the faux-finished, weathered-copper hood above the five-burner cook top are the focal points of the kitchen. Across from the island are a full refrigerator, freezer, and wine chiller. A new, larger, arched window brightens the entire room – and the enjoyment of all who enter!
