-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------This family decided to build a custom home closer to their workplaces and to
where their two children attend private school (in an effort to cut down commute
time). The couple wanted their new home to have modern lines with classic
design sensibilities and details. They wanted it to have a light and fresh feeling
with interior design that could stand the test of time.
We worked with the homeowners and builder to select the footprint/floor plan of
their new home. The kitchen is the crowning jewel that makes this home sparkle.
Our clients wanted a classic design for their kitchen that was open & inviting for
family & friends with a large center island for extra storage and to serve as the
entertaining hub. A walk-in pantry in the kitchen, seating for up to eight at their
flush island, and open planning between their dinette, great room, and kitchen for
easy entertaining for large gatherings were must haves on their list. We met the
family’s requests for multipurpose spaces by including a convenient built-in
computer desk off of the kitchen and a butler’s pantry between their dining room
and kitchen. The conveniently located locker room (off of the garage) acts as a
drop zone before entering the kitchen. The locker room is complete with a utility
sink, cabinetry, lockers – one for each family member and space for a second
refrigerator/freezer as well.
