The kitchen was totally gutted, keeping the existing plumbing lines etc. keeps costs down. The kitchen was custom made using a mixture of walnut and painted cabinets. All the receptacles were taken off the back wall and hidden under the base of the upper cabinets giving the slate finger tile back splash an uninterrupted look. I used high definition laminate counters, the kitchen hosts storage everywhere, from the corner drawers that access storage all the way back to the corner as well as the heavy mixer that lifts to counter height air assisted. The floor is a floating vinyl walnut/grey which i used in the custom stain given to the cabinets. The peninsula seats 4 comfortably and adding this at bar height hides the mess from the dining area. The refrigerator wall was pulled out to give a visual interest as well as extra deep storage in the cabinets. One side of the painted cabinets host a locked bar and wine storage whilst the other side has a re-cycle center and display.

Walnut Stain - What stain did you use on the cabinets? I'm trying to decide between special walnut and dark walnut. Thank you. »
Susan Brook Interiors This was a custom mix that i added different stains together until i had the right read. I can't duplicate this recipe or give you percentages....sorry. I don't like not being able to answer questions but if it helps look at stains with golden tones, walnut doesn't need to be too dark or you will loose it's beauty. Regards, Susan
Susan Brook Interiors The height of the raised counter is 42-inches and the depth of that is 15-inches on the top with an interior depth of 12-inches. I have electrical outlets in the riser turned horizontal, hope this helps, regards, Susan.
