This all-in-one kitchenette can be used as a secondary kitchen or even the main kitchen in one room living environments like studio apartments etc. This Mini-Kitchen Armoire is so special because it does not need to look like an exposed kitchen all the time. Designed for a contemporary New Jersey shore vacation home, it functions as the second floor auxiliary kitchen for an entertainment room that features a black and tan color scheme (black furniture, blonde wood floors). The Midnight Black compact kitchen features Taupe accents for a strikingly bold but elegant appearance. Its grid style doors (designed to resemble a tall ship’s deck hatches) lend a nautical appearance to the piece, complementing the room’s minimalist design.

This kitchen made entirely of workstations combines with an informal dining area to form the heart of this Long Island, New York ‘Over 55’ condominium. These homeowners designed their kitchen as a collection of furniture, because they could see it from the foyer, dining room, living room and breakfast room, and they did not want it to look like a normal kitchen. They had a lot of artwork and sculpture and liked the idea of a kitchen that was filled with ‘3-D sculptural-like’ pieces of furniture unspoiled by the look of imposing appliances. Hiding the appliances in the pieces kept the kitchen uncluttered as well.

The problem with typical small exposed mini-kitchens is that they never disappear. When they are not being used, they are still part of the room. Dishes in the sink, ovens and cooktops staring you in the face. On the other hand, this Armoire Kitchen is so beautiful that it can actually become the focal point of the room! "We designed this unit kitchenette (and its many variations) to be used in Urban Studio Apartments, Master Bedroom or Guest room suites, Home Theaters or Pool Houses, Mother-in-Law apartments or anywhere where a tiny kitchen is required to blend flawlessly into a room’s décor." says David Beer, YesterTec’s founder and president. "With this compact kitchen, you can literally cook an entire meal then close the doors and hide the mess (and clean everything up later). Its great for the ‘On the go’ lifestyle. And there are many other uses for it as well. Recently it was pointed out to me that it is a great solution when converting a standard kitchen to a Kosher Kitchen.

ASI QUEDA CERRADO - mayucita

Kitchen Workstation Furniture (KWF) could be for you if:
You want your kitchen to become a beautifully furnished room instead of the same old thing, wall to wall cabinets, countertops and appliances. The kitchen shown here has three ovens, a dishwasher and all the small appliances tucked away in 5 separate workstations.
You want your kitchen to be more than just a kitchen. You want a kitchen that can be lived in, one that can blend into your family room or greatroom like never before.
You want to create a modern but period styled kitchen unimpeded by the look of today’s modern appliances.
You want to take complete control of your kitchen’s design. With or without a professional designer! You even want to control how your appliances look!
You want more variety of color, shape and textures surrounding you. Separating each piece allows you to create the eclectic look you’ve craved.
You want to improve the quality of your life. You don’t need the enormous kitchen shown in most of the shelter magazines. But you want yours to be innovative, beautifully crafted and to work well.

Kitchen - traditional u-shaped kitchen idea in Other with granite countertops, an undermount sink, recessed-panel cabinets, white cabinets, white backsplash, subway tile backsplash and stainless steel appliances
Another idea of bumping out the island - patricia_rigg

This Vacation Home kitchen in an old New Jersey beach community features a Working Pantry, a Sink Workstation and (2) Work Tables that flank the range. The sculpturally symmetrical maple workstations blend with the hi-tech appliances to form two separate but symmetrical work areas, each focused around the sink or range. This symmetry, coupled with the lack of upper cabinets gives this kitchen its simple, comfortable feel because symmetry is so easy for the eye to understand (compared to the often chaotic assemblage of continuous cabinetry, counter tops and appliances). The continuity of seeing the tiger-wood floors and light colored walls between all the furniture pieces also allows the adjacent living and dining areas to blend flawlessly into the kitchen.

I like the multiple drey grey tones. Though a lot of the magic of the kitchen comes from the objects on the shelves - alpinepaq

When the doors are opened in this working pantry, the hidden countertop will contain small appliances and will be used as a baking surface. The doors store a large collection of spices.

The fireplace is clearly the focal point of this room,so the huge Subzero refrigerator next to it needed to recede somewhat so as not to steal the fireplace's importance in the room. Notice the soapstone sink on the distressed pine Sink Base next to the owner's antique cupboard. (Since this job, we have developed several designs that mimic the utility of this most useful cupboard.)
