Want to do ceiling and archway, pls help - is the archway installed on top of the v grooved poplar or is the poplar ran up to it? Husband and I are debating. I say the arch is on top. also, any tips on putting this same header/arch between my kitchen and dining room. We are not contractors but are going to do this ourselves. Any advice on building this would be appreciated. Beautiful home design. »
Christopher A Rose AIA, ASID Thanks for the compliments. This is a structural wall so the arched opening was there then the V groove was run to the beam and then the crown molding added.

Christopher A Rose AIA, ASID The counter is an oiled Black Walnut (to match the floor). It does require periodic re-oiling but is relatively low maintenance. The oil protects from the splashing from the sink.
Christopher A Rose AIA, ASID There is another photo with a closeup of the island showing the integral drainboard which using wood can be very cost effective rather than in granite.
Christopher A Rose AIA, ASID Sorry, I was not forwarded your question. The kitchen is 13' 6" x 21' 6" good proportions used by Fibernocci de Pisa. Its his mathematical series discovered during the Rennaissance that mimicks the natural growth cycles.

similar layout to my kitchen. I like the location of the Fridge. Don't forget the wine fridge. Ovens to be below countertop if possible. sink by window with dw beside
