Several construction changes opened up the kitchen to daylight and space: relocating the powder room, relocating the door and adding a large bay window. From the start, we committed to green design, materials & practices wherever possible. All cabinetry is formaldehyde free and finished with lo-VOC Benjamin Moore Aura paint.

This custom cabinet incorporates a desk for bill paying, file & mail organizing, cat food, kids's lunch boxes and the speakers for the iPod. On the left is a broom closet.

this is perfect - I love this desk/storage combo. I'm assuming it was custom built? I'd love to have this in my den. I live in Nassau LI any suggestions? Thank you »

Tracey Stephens Interior Design Inc Yes, this was definitely custom built for this kitchen after I analyzed the clients' needs. I could design one for you and you could have it built locally by a cabinet maker, or I could assemble stock cabinet pieces into a custom unit. Email me privately and we can discuss offline.
