Eat-in kitchen - large contemporary eat-in kitchen idea in New York with white cabinets, granite countertops and an island

The custom cabinets allow for special design details to enhance the space and to tie into the home’s original characteristics. For example, painted white cabinets with a traditional raised panel door style were used because there is a mixture of stained and painted woodwork in the home. Therefore, the painted cabinets and stained oak flooring were chosen, which flowed from the original dining area into the kitchen. Also, wider crown moldings at the top of the upper cabinets, fluted angled sides at the bases of the sink and range top cabinets, and fluted legs at the island were incorporated to add depth and interest to the cabinetry. Special spice racks were installed at each side of the upper cabinets next to the range to house all the spices.

The homeowners loved the look of granite, but did not want the maintenance of this type of product. Therefore, Zodiac countertops were installed, a quartz-based product that looks very similar to granite, but does not have the same maintenance issues. Mystic Black was chosen for the main body of the kitchen to provide for a contrasting look to the cabinets and Indus Red was chosen as an accent piece for the island to coordinate with the red knobs of the Viking range top. An Elkay stainless steel sink and Moen stainless steel faucet tie in nicely with the stainless steel appliances. To improve lighting, six recessed lights on a dimmer switch were installed in the ceiling along with two areas for drop pendant lights – over the sink and over the island. Traditional time period light fixtures were used with white alabaster shades. Under cabinet task lighting was also used, along with the accent lighting at the top of the upper cabinets that were dropped down from the ceiling.

The Viking range top is a complimentary focal point of the kitchen. A raised area of Zodiac countertop was used as a back splash and a stainless steel industrial fan finish the range top all composition. Notice the stepped upper under cabinet task lighting, as well as above accent lighting. The owners were using larger appliances, such as a Sub-Aero refrigerator, 36’’ Viking gas range top, and a 30’’ Viking built-in oven. The final design had to have space for the appliances, as well as enough workspace around them to allow for proper usage.

The new kitchen provides the owner with more continuous counter space, as well as a work island that is treated as a furniture piece. Notice the coordination of the Indus Red Zodiac top with the Viking range top knobs.

The sink wall showing the new window, which allows for natural light, but limits the view to the neighbor’s property. Zodiac tops and an Elkay stainless steel under mount sink with a period piece light fixture above complete the look.
