This kitchen was expanded to become the focal area for living. The original breakfast area was absorbed into the kitchen. A wall with access to the old laundry room was closed up to create a longer wall for the new professional range. A large island was designed with curved bar seating for casual meals and gathering. The wall between the kitchen and dining room was removed to improve flow and view. The functionality of the kitchen was perfectly planned with areas for food prep, cooking and clean up. An overall neutral color scheme was created and used throughout all new spaces.
