Creating a very functional space for this new home was imperative. The architectural layout required a long galley type of kitchen, yet still allowed for a center island. As a replica of days gone by, the owners wanted a transitional style to be incorporated into their architecturally traditional home. Green painted alder cabinetry and a wood floor soften the reflection of the stainless steel appliances. High ceilings allow the eye to travel to the architectural elements of the space, creating that warm, welcoming feeling.
