This cooks' kitchen includes back-to-back cutting boards--one savory and one baking--two pop-up appliance trays in cabinets, one for the Cuisinart and one for the mixer, an open air basket drawer for root vegetables. Specialty cabinets include a warming drawer, pull-out oil pantry near the cooktop, baking center, tray pantry, teapot collection display, and recycling center. The pantry was the most efficient storage of a 2 ft by 3 ft floor footprint possible, including piano hinged doors, earthquake proof shelving, and floor-to-ceiling bins for grains and condiments. Custom cabinetry by Trumblewood in Berkeley was designed to mimic antique red lacquer tansu furniture. Upper cabinets and refrigerator panels were fashioned from cherry wood harvested from the Aldo Leopold forest preserve in Wisconsin. Verde Fire granite countertops and sink apron and custom light fixture add to the personalized details.
