This is a remodel of an existing highrise apartment in Streeterville. The apartment was gutted and significant walls were removed in the kitchen to allow for a clear view of the lake and integration to the dining room. A breakfast table was added as a functional design feature, integrating storage and media. A sleek look to the space was achieved by a run of tall storage housing (2) ovens, a tambour unit to hide the mixmaster, integrated refrigeration and tall pantry storage. Keeping the countertop and backsplash the same in the main kitchen area continued the sleek theme. The Porcelanosa Street tile as backsplash at the breakfast bar gives texture and definition to this area.
