Eat-in kitchen - coastal medium tone wood floor eat-in kitchen idea in Atlanta with an undermount sink, shaker cabinets, medium tone wood cabinets, stainless steel appliances and an island

This is a great house. Perched high on a private, heavily wooded site, it has a rustic contemporary aesthetic. Vaulted ceilings, sky lights, large windows and natural materials punctuate the main spaces. The existing large format mosaic slate floor grabs your attention upon entering the home extending throughout the foyer, kitchen, and family room. Specific requirements included a larger island with workspace for each of the homeowners featuring a homemade pasta station which requires small appliances on lift-up mechanisms as well as a custom-designed pasta drying rack. Both chefs wanted their own prep sink on the island complete with a garbage “shoot” which we concealed below sliding cutting boards. A second and overwhelming requirement was storage for a large collection of dishes, serving platters, specialty utensils, cooking equipment and such. To meet those needs we took the opportunity to get creative with storage: sliding doors were designed for a coffee station adjacent to the main sink; hid the steam oven, microwave and toaster oven within a stainless steel niche hidden behind pantry doors; added a narrow base cabinet adjacent to the range for their large spice collection; concealed a small broom closet behind the refrigerator; and filled the only available wall with full-height storage complete with a small niche for charging phones and organizing mail. We added 48” high base cabinets behind the main sink to function as a bar/buffet counter as well as overflow for kitchen items. The client’s existing vintage commercial grade Wolf stove and hood commands attention with a tall backdrop of exposed brick from the fireplace in the adjacent living room. We loved the rustic appeal of the brick along with the existing wood beams, and complimented those elements with wired brushed white oak cabinets. The grayish stain ties in the floor color while the slab door style brings a modern element to the space. We lightened the color scheme with a mix of white marble and quartz countertops. The waterfall countertop adjacent to the dining table shows off the amazing veining of the marble while adding contrast to the floor. Special materials are used throughout, featured on the textured leather-wrapped pantry doors, patina zinc bar countertop, and hand-stitched leather cabinet hardware. We took advantage of the tall ceilings by adding two walnut linear pendants over the island that create a sculptural effect and coordinated them with the new dining pendant and three wall sconces on the beam over the main sink.

This beautiful Trex "Havana Gold" Transcend Tropicals deck offers a lot of space for outdoor entertaining. One end of the deck is a corner bench anchored by planters that offers additional seating. A "waterfall" step with recessed lights for safety covers the entire front of the deck, and the railing end offers post top lights for ambiance at night. The two-tone outline on t the deck perimeter in "Vintage Lantern" gives a nice "picture framing" accent to the deck.

The countertop cupboards with fluted glass and on trend brass catches are the perfect place to store crockery and glassware. The fluted glass subtly disguises the cupboard's contents whilst adding an industrial edge to the room.

This is another sitting area in the home. This one is more cozy and features breathtaking views of Lake Michigan.

To keep the design from being too monotonous, concrete countertops are selected to outline the perimeter cabinetry, while wire mesh cabinet frontage, aged bronze hardware and primitive light fixtures add a touch of elegance. Photo Credit: Ashley Avila
