Medium Kitchens Category -- Honorable Mention -- A Four-Cook Kitchen
It began with a typical U-shaped kitchen well suited for a one-cook family. However, this family of four cooks had other ideas. The clients wanted open storage for everyday items and no wall cabinets or visible appliances. They asked for a speed oven, a steam oven, and a cappuccino machine. They loved the idea of simplicity in an entire wall of stainless appliances and cabinets.

What they ended up with is a true cook's kitchen with the uncluttered look they wanted. Two pantries with a sliding door storage system and deep drawers solved storage issues without resorting to upper cabinets. A French door refrigerator was added. An entry was widened, a new island positioned, and Silestone Grey Amazon quartz was selected to top it off.
