Kitchen - contemporary kitchen idea in Philadelphia

In addition to the pantry, the client wanted to clear some counter space next to her Vitamix for smoothie making. We moved her toaster (not used often), KitchenAid stand mixer (not used often), and a few extra coffee makers and grinder off the counter. We put all of her different coffee pods and grounds together next to the mugs and to go cups. Everything needed to make coffee is here in one area and right next to the refrigerator (for the oat milk!)

The new kitchen is open and airy with high attention to both food preparation and the gathering of friends and family. The owners welcome impromptu meals with guests regularly, so an island allowing flow through the kitchen into the dining area makes sense, and an open, arched connection repeats our old home’s architectural detailing.
