The kitchen was designed to be streamlined, highly functional and easily accessed from inside and out. The island is clad in seamless stainless steal, and also creates the casual dining table. One side of the island is the wine and beer cooler, which is placed so it's extra accessible to the outdoor pool area.

This is a false window we created on the window used for access to the crawl space. Lighting strips were added in the inside edge of the window frame, a reflective back on the back of the window, and frosted plexiglass on the inside disguises the lighting. The curtains are held with a tension rod that can be easily removed and there is a hook to hold the window open when access to the crawl space is needed. The window light is on a dimmer switch so she can control the light (reflect the time of day if she wanted) and the connection is fed into a data port on the ceiling that can be easily disconnected when the window access needs to be used.

This client has a son with Cerebral Palsy. Our goal was to create a design that was beautiful and function for his daily activities. The cabinets don't go all the way to the ground and there is a drain in the center of the room, creating a wet room for the entire space. The metal on the ceiling is a chair lift so he can be moved around the house in a harness. There is no shower dam so his wheel chair can also be used to bring him from the door into the shower. The sink has no cabinetry under it so that a wheelchair can roll up and he can easily wash his hands.
