Kitchen

OVERALL GOAL: Update kitchen – clean, modern, functional, and enlarged.
**Would rather splurge on kitchen appliances and counter -- and cut costs on cabinetry.
BUDGET: $30-50K
MUSTS: Appliances; Waterfall island counter; Deep, double-wide single sink with a faucet that allows water to fall in the center of sink vs. closer to wall; Efficient draws / cabinets that maximize storage; Hood Vent that is in scale / proportion to kitchen.
Would LIKE:
Double oven; Vertical roller cabinetry -- appliance garage; Wine fridge or Beverage drawers.

Like the placement of area rug.

Q

Kind of like the blue cabinetry.

Q

Photo

Love the Fridge.

Q

Photo

Like the mix of materials. Could we use composite for the waterfall island.

Q

Photo

Can we section off a portion of the kitchen island for a wine fridge?

Q

Photo

Layout similar.

Q

Photo

Like the island mix of materials and colors.

Q

Photo

Maybe using the counter material as the pop of color?

Q

Photo

Like the hidden outlet drawer.

Q

Photo

Perhaps for the negative space on counter corner, adding a vase with large branches?

Q

Photo

Love the island material and the lights.

Q

Photo

Maybe, to modernize, we white the walls, and then add in elements of dark.

Q

Photo

Like the contrast between counter and support

Q

Photo

Waterfall counter island.

Q

Photo

Waterfall counter island with composite material.

Q

That grey/blue cabinetry in back.

Q

Flank sink with wine fridge and washer?

Q

Appliance garage. Would like to incorporate a roller-opening cabinet for coffee / espresso maker in pantry.

Q

Photo

Fridge on the end of the kitchen.

Q

Photo

Potential countertop / island material alternative. Also, like how they combined the light floors with the white cabinetry and then added an accent of dark wood.

Q

Photo

Also a potential option for the empty vertical space between kitchen and dining room? Also, perhaps incorporating a back splash is not counter to ceiling.

Q

Photo

If waterfall island counter is too costly, perhaps as an alternative we do a wine set-up.

Q

Photo

Perhaps in that empty vertical space a wine fridge?

Q

Photo

Would LOVE a tiered system for food storage containers.

Q

Photo

This is an Ikea kitchen space saver. . . maybe an option if we have a deeper corner cupboard.

Q

Photo

Yes, please! A slim towel drying drawer.

Q

Would LOVE to have this system for trash and recycling.
