THIS IS ONE OF OUR MICHIGAN CLIENTS.....SPECTACULAR VISUAL AS YOU ENTER THE KITCHEN FROM FRONT DOOR.....COUNTER TOPS, APPLIANCES AND PENDANT FIXTURES MAKE IT ALL HAPPEN.....SPECIFIC DETAILS IN PICS BELOW.
Pap
FULL VISUAL FROM DIFFERENT ANGLE.....WE ALWAYS TRY TO RUN "TALLS" TOGETHER FOR MORE DRAMATIC EFFECT.....YOU CAN SEE THE RESULT HERE!.....GOOD LOOK AT THE FLOORING.....WHAT A GREAT CONTRAST.....COUNTER TOPS ENHANCE CABS. AND FLOORING.
Pap
ISLAND/PENINSULA FITS PERFECTLY.....WE HAD SEVERAL STRUCTURAL OPTIONS WITH BACK WALL.....FINAL RESULT CAME OUT GREAT.....NOTE BASE MICROWAVE DRAWER.....OVERHANG FOR SEATING.....COUNTER TOPS.....PENDANT FIXTURES.....ESPECIALLY THE TILES RUNNING UP THE FULL WALL....WE ALWAYS LOVE THIS EFFECT BUT HARD...
Pap
AGAIN, DON'T BE AFRAID TO RUN GLASS SUBWAY TILES UP THE ENTIRE WALL...BEHIND THE PENINSULA IT GOES UP FROM THE FLOOR (SEE PREVIOUS PIC).....WE TRY TO USE COOKTOPS IN ISLANDS/PENINSULAS BECAUSE IT CAN BE DRAMATIZED BY PENINSULA HOOD, ESPECIALLY THIS STYLE!.....AGAIN, NOTE PENDANT FIXTURES AND...
Pap
KNOW WHAT?.....IF YOU'VE GOT A GRAND PIANO IN YOUR KITCHEN AREA, FLAUNT IT!!!.....HERE'S VISUAL FACING ENTRANCE TO KITCHEN FROM FRONT ROOM.....THIS IS JUST GREAT.....WE AREADY HAD THE WOOD FLOORING TRANSITION PLATE AND IT BEAUTIFULLY ADDS SOME SEPARATION FROM THE PIANO AREA.....AGAIN, THE FLOORING...
Pap
ONE OF OUR CLIENT'S BIGGEST COMPLAINTS IS NOT ENOUGH DRAWERS.....WE ALWAYS RECTIFY THAT....IF DONE CORRECTLY THE TOP DRAWER OF THE POT-PAN DRAWER CABINET UNDER THE COOKTOP CAN ALSO BE FUNCTIONAL AS YOU'LL SEE BELOW.....GREAT LOCATION FOR PANTRY PULL-OUT CABINET BY COOKTOP.....GOTTA LOVE THAT...
Pap
THERE ARE ALL SORTS OF AFTERMARKET CABINET ACCESSORY MFR.'S AND WE USE THEM ALL TOO.....IN THIS CASE INSTALLER WAS ABLE TO FIT EVERYTHING INTO ONE CABINET!.....ROLL-OUT TRAYS, PANTRY PULL-OUTS AND DOOR SHELVING AT YOUR FINGERTIPS WHEN YOU OPEN THE DOORS!.....ANOTHER GOOD VIEW OF THE FLOORING.
Pap
AFTER TOUTING IT IN THE DESCRIPTIONS ABOVE THOUGHT WE SHOULD JUST SHOWCASE IT IN A CLOSE-UP PIC.....WHEN USING GRANITE WITH A LOT OF "MOVEMENT" BE SURE THE BEST SLAB IS USED ON THE ISLAND WHICH WILL HAVE THE BEST VISUAL.....MAKE SURE YOUR DESIGNER/FABRICATOR TAGS SLABS WITH YOU, IF POSSIBLE.
Pap
WE ALWAYS PUT COOKTOP IN POT-&-PAN DRAWER CABINET.....THEN WE HAVE OUR INSTALLERS MODIFY THE TOP DRAWER TO AVOID MECHANICALS FROM COOKTOP AND BE FUNCTIONAL!
Pap
WE ALWAYS PUT CHARGING STATIONS IN WALL CABINETS.....KEEPS THEM HIDDEN AND DOESN'T CLUTTER UP THE COUNTER.....ANGLE WALL CABINET IS IDEAL SPACE.....IT HAS A LOT OF CHARACTER IN THE DESIGN BUT ISN'T REAL FUNCTIONAL SPACE-WISE.....AS A RESULT, WHAT A PERFECT SPOT!
Pap
CROWN MOLDING CONFIGURATION IS REAL IMPORTANT BECAUSE IT'S ACCENTUATED AGAINST THE CEILING AS SEEN FROM BELOW.....WE ALWAYS MAKE SURE OUR DESIGNS HAVE "INS/OUTS & UPS/DOWNS" TO ACHIEVE THIS EFFECT.....DON'T JUST DO HOME DEPOT DESIGNS!
Pap
JUST SHOWING DOUBLE GARBAGE PULL-OUT AND SINK TILT-OUT TRAY.....IF YOU USE TILT-OUT TRAY BE SURE YOUR SPONGES/BRUSHES ARE DRY WHEN YOU PUT EM IN!
Pap
HAD TO DO CLOSE-UP OF SINK WITH COUNTER-TOP.....WE ALWAYS USE GRIDS WITH SINKS, STAINLESS OR OTHER MATERIAL.....WE ALSO SUGGEST THE 1/2 DEPTH DIVIDER BUT IT REALLY DEPENDS ON HOW YOU USE YOUR SINK.....BOTTOM LINE- THIS IS A GREAT LOOK!!
