From Galley to Gorgeous

To create a more efficient kitchen, an addition was planned and the kitchen was relocated to the former living room.  The removal of a window necessitated the maximization of the remaining natural light.  Glass door wall cabinets with in-cabinet lighting were used to mimic the effect of natural light.  To center the sink in the window and maintain a functional “clean-up area,” both the dishwasher and pull-out trash cabinet were installed at an angle flanking the sink.  Necessary headers and trusses were cleverly concealed behind crown molding and box soffits.
