Lyptus, a combination of two types of Eucalyptus trees, is a fast growing hardwood that can be sustainably harvested- a new full height tree will grow out of the stump in 15-20 years. For a kitchen interupted with too many doorways, it functions well for 2 cooks and 2 teenages with many friends because of the designated work stations. The shelvles below the 6 burner Viking range-top echoes a commercial kitchen functionality. The lowered cutting board facilitates chopping and prep work. Look and feel is fun and family warm.
