Home Remodel Objective

Update the kitchen design to be more functional by pairing convenience and technology. We were able to accommodate the homeowner’s request by incorporating top-of-the-line Wolf appliances into a home design layout that integrated function, beauty, and balance.

Kitchen Features:

  • Paneled Appliances – Bosch Dishwasher & Sub-Zero Refrigerator
  • Glass shelves & glass doors
  • Silverware tray
  • Miele Coffee Maker Built-in
  • Wolf Appliances
  • Window Seat
  • LED Lighting
  • Downdraft
  • Double Trash pull out
  • Walnut wood top
  • Blind Corner unit
  • Pan divider
  • Roll out shelves

Kitchen Island

Select Walnut

Build Method: Inset

This inset walnut island adds rich warmth and makes the kitchen feel bigger—even without adding square footage. The deep walnut against the crisp white cabinets creates a bold, timeless contrast that makes the island the star of the room. The cooktop is seamlessly integrated with a downdraft built into the countertop, keeping the space open and uncluttered.

This kitchen blends beauty with function through thoughtful details. Paneled Sub-Zero refrigeration and a Bosch dishwasher maintain a seamless look. The built-in Miele coffee maker adds everyday luxury, paired with the glass-front cabinets and glass shelving, which bring warmth and elegance to the coffee hutch. Inside, smart storage solutions like a double trash pullout, roll-out shelves, and a pan divider keep everything organized and within reach. Finishing touches such as LED lighting and sleek Milan hardware in a gunmetal finish tie the space together with modern sophistication.
