This shot shows off the framed herringbone accent panel over of the dual fuel Thermadore range. Also of note is the vertical cabinet tower that houses the microwave and a counter top perfect for small appliances that like the toaster. This helps keep the main counter-top spaces uncluttered while everyday use items do not have to be hidden away behind doors. Tim Krueger

It is the details that set the Miele Range apart from any other, delivering precise, reliable, gourmet cooking results – compromise is simply not an option when it comes to performance. Offering you complete product depth and breadth, choose from different size configurations (30", 36" and 48") and power configurations (dual fuel, gas, electric and induction). All aligning perfectly with our Generation 6000 built-in appliances.

Maximizing the functionality of this space, and coordinating the new kitchen with the beautiful remodel completed previously by the client were the two most important aspects of this project. The existing spaces are elegantly decorated with an open plan, dark hardwood floors, and natural stone accents. The new, lighter, more open kitchen flows beautifully into the client’s existing dining room space. Satin nickel hardware blends with the stainless steel appliances and matches the satin nickel details throughout the home. The fully integrated refrigerator next to the narrow pull-out pantry cabinet, take up less visual weight than a traditional stainless steel appliance and the two combine to provide fantastic storage. The glass cabinet doors and decorative lighting beautifully highlight the client’s glassware and dishes. Finished with white subway tile, Dreamy Marfil quartz countertops, and a warm natural wood blind; the space warm, inviting, elegant, and extremely functional. copyright 2013 marilyn peryer photography
