After a serious loss, our client contacted us to design a kitchen for her which would signal the start of a new phase of life. She wanted a sunny, happy kitchen with space for her grandchildren to pull up under the counter to roll and decorate cookies, a wine refrigerator for girlfriends' nights, and a corner eating area to take advantage of the sunlight and views of her beloved neighborhood. She requested that the place feel open and bright, but also warm and approachable. The spectacular quartzite slab set the color tones for the space, and made a dramatic backdrop of the cooktop area under the custom hood. Master stone fabricators continued the veining pattern down the length of the countertop...a whopping 16 feet of book matching beauty in this welcoming. kitchen.
