Client had procured my services because she was unhappy with the layout designed by a previous firm. I needed to first confirm that this Client was willing to relocate appliances. When I heard YES - then I suggested to relocate the range and fridge. Sink in the corner had to stay. pure lee...

Built In Microwave Locations

This before picture shows how crammed the space was with the fridge so close to the range. There was a large area allocated for a desk, that became the " clutter" space. The kitchen also had a nice size pantry closet but that space was not maximized.

Relocating the range

The Client challenged me with wanting to find room for a wine fridge. By extending the peninsular out to the end of the wall we captured more counter space and found room for the wine fridge. pure lee photography

The existing peninsula had a 1/2 wall that we removed allowing us to push the peninsula further into the breakfast nook area. This gave them more counter space right of the range. pure lee photography

Relocating the range

By taking out the pantry closet and removing the desk area we gained a lot of room for the fridge and a pantry cabinet with roll out trays plus counter top area for "clutter" pure lee photography

Built In Fridge Design In Sage Stain On Cherry Wood

This was the before image showing how much space was allocated to a desk area that we replaced with the fridge and the pantry closet that was removed.

This is how much counter space was gained when the fridge was relocated. This was a nice place to add a glass insert for the corner cabinet. We also added light inside the cabinet to highlight the Clients collections. pure lee photography

Sage Stain On Cherry Cabinets

This before image shows how the fridge made the corner counter top area almost non functional.

Relocating the range

View from breakfast table. Relocating the fridge opened up the space. We kept the microwave in the same location based on how the client accessed this appliance. pure lee photography

Moving the fridge out of the corner created a nice clean space. Making the cabinets tall and with crown, installed to the ceiling, helps to provide a finished look. pure lee photography

Sage Stain on Cherry Wood Kitchen Cabinets

Gaining as much storage was important. When we removed the 1/2 wall we were able to add another cabinet with access from the breakfast table. The Client wanted 3 roll out trays to store placements etc. pure lee photography

Peninsula Storage Ideas

We gained additional counter space for the Client by creating a corner ledge behind the sink - perfect as a plant shelf. I also suggested for the client to paint the window trim the same color as the walls. This prevented the window frame from visually breaking up the space. pure lee photography
