While the original layout of this kitchen remained the same, new full-height cabinetry, glass front doors and under cabinet lighting give this space a whole new look. Upper cabinets were removed over the peninsula, which opens up the space and allows for a straight view from the kitchen to dining table. Additional storage space was gained by removing the soffit, allowing for stacked cabinetry. An old pantry closet was removed to accomodate a pantry cabinet, which gives a cohesive look to this kitchen. Cabinetry was also added to the other side of the refrigerator, resulting in ample storage space throughout. Recessed lighting and under cabinet lighting ensures a well-lit space, as opposed to the single ceiling fixture that previously existed.
