It was a pleasure to work with San Francisco contractor Peter Pomianek on his own home.

“I was passing by the showroom in Palo Alto one day and I saw the sign ‘European Cabinets,’ and out of curiosity, I stopped in. I was immediately reminded of the modern European style that I like. My wife and I were building a house at the time and we decided it was the style that we wanted,” Peter recalled.

The kitchen features base cabinets from the Aran Cucine Miro collection with a charcoal Canovaccio Larix finish. The upper wall cabinets and tall pantries were designed with white matte glass from the Bijou collection. The cabinets above the bar use decorative glass from the Bijou collection. All of the upper cabinets come with built-in LED under cabinet lighting.

“We are very happy. Everything worked out well for us and the results are better than we expected,” said Peter, adding that seeing the actual kitchen installed is so much better than working with samples and 3D modeled images.
