Design Elements

Some of the specific design elements in kitchens and bathrooms I've done
Country: United States
This island is actually on casters! Two of the corner casters have heavy duty brakes to keep it in place until it is ready to be moved. It can also be moved to another room and serve as a buffet or bar when guests come over
Island on Casters
Close up of the casters and brakes. The trim at the bottom of the cabinet extends to cover up most of the caster mechanism, leaving just enough room to reach in and adjust the brakes, which creates a "floating" look
Island on Casters
Get the biggest window you can over the sink. This one is nearly 100" wide! Be careful of using wood right behind a sink where it has potential to stay wet and rot- we used a matching piece of plastic trim to avoid the issue
Large Window Over Sink
Ask if your installer can notch out the drawer box to go around the plumbing so you still get some extra storage. It's more work, so you might have to pay a little extra for the added convenience
Slide Outs Under Sink
Light rail continues under the microwave for a more finished look.

Spice pullout next to stove makes for easy access while cooking

"Super Susan" trays in corner allow for a lot of storage. Even the KitchenAid mixer fits!
Super Susan Angle
A pretty end cap with decorative legs allows for extra display space.
Island End Cap
Match your outlet covers as closely as possible to your cabinets. Your cabinet installer should make sure the outlets are not interfering with the decorative part of the door or panel.
Outlet in Island
Furniture base on side of cabinet ends neatly at recessed toekick
Furniture Base
Move your outlets up to the bottom of the cabinet
Tucked In Outlets
Marry two different types of crown molding with a simple block in the corner
Transition Block
Perfect with a Super Susan behind
Easy Reach Base Cabinet
Easily access the whole cabinet, and never lose anything in those "blind" areas again!
