Awarded Second Place in the California Sub-Zero and Wolf Kitchen Design Contest 2015-2016 Slate grey was used to provide contrast between the island and the bookcase with the rest of the kitchen. We added a custom pot rack over the oven hood, pot filler for convenience, and a custom stainless steel black splash behind the range for clean-ability. The island was designed as a full prep space: one portion of the island is marble for baking, and the other portion is a wood chopping block. A knife slot in the island was added for quick and easy access, with a prep sink with colander nearby.
