1. Built to accommodate any gathering, this kitchen is a masterclass in blending practicality with beauty. High-contrast smoke stain cabinetry creates a grounded effect while maintaining an airy atmosphere, with slab-style doors for easy maintenance. Perimeter cabinets painted in soft Buff work with the wide windows to fill the space with brightness and natural light.
2. Adding a striking natural element is a full height stone backsplash with gray veining. A long stone shelf blends seamlessly with the backsplash, providing plenty of space to display decorative items.
3. In conjunction with a large island, expansive countertops are uncluttered with appliances and offer maximum space for prepping and serving food. Cooks will also make great use out of the large apron-front sink and undercounter fridge and freezer drawers, whether preparing an intimate dinner or entertaining a large crowd.
4. Rounding out the space is a multipurpose island with space for seating in addition to built-in shelves for extra storage and display. Large walkways surrounding the island guarantee that this kitchen will never feel too cluttered.
