Lakefront Wilmette Kitchen

Our client sought elevated visual appeal and functionality from this lakefront home. We created an open, full kitchen and convenient butler’s pantry within their design. Removing the walls, which separated the family room and kitchen opened up the space, introducing more natural light and gleaming lake views. Inspired by the scene, our design evolved to include a dry bar with a floating, back-lit glass countertop and custom storage. The unique, glowing bar further enhanced the entertainment aspect of the room, making it a functional and beautifully artistic addition. With modern lines and clean simplicity in mind throughout, custom floating cabinetry without hardware, waterfall-edged Peruvian walnut wood countertops, and LED-lit polished stainless steel toe kicks were added to the kitchen to make a striking impression. To complete the kitchen, high quality appliances and custom organization—like the Subzero wine fridge and specialty pull-out spice racks—were added to make this space both perfectly attuned to the needs of the homeowners and a visual masterpiece.
