The challenge of reimagining this kitchen didn’t stop Pine Street Carpenters from designing a space that packs a lot into its small, unique footprint. The cabinetry is Bridgeport Recessed finished in Shadow Gray offset with matte black hardware and lighting fixtures. To bring in light and create space, the ceiling was opened above the eat-in island and a skylight was added, while the white subway tile backsplash and paint allow the light to bounce around the space. The island with its hand-hammered copper top provides both an eat-in kitchen area as well as additional storage. Making use of all space and functionality for preparation, cooking and storage, custom shelving for wine and other storage is built-in around a door leading to the backyard.
