Centralized Comfort: Modernized Kitchen with Radius Island for Family Gatherings in Forest Glen
Untouched since its construction in the mid-90s, this home required a kitchen renovation to suit the owners' new lifestyle as empty nesters. The objective was to create a spacious, open-plan kitchen that facilitated family gatherings and improved functionality.The primary design philosophy focused on maximizing the existing space while introducing contemporary elements. Key design challenges included updating the small, outdated island, and addressing the lack of storage and overall flow. To overcome these challenges, we reimagined the kitchen layout. Glass upper cabinet doors were used to enhance the sense of openness, while a built-in pantry and customized bar area were added to increase storage. A large island with a radius cabinet at the end was introduced to improve flow and create a central space for family cooking and gatherings.This transformation not only modernized the kitchen but also made it more practical and inviting, aligning perfectly with the clients' vision for a warm and functional family space. The successful integration of form and function in this project underscores the commitment to delivering luxurious, handcrafted spaces that meet the specific needs of homeowners.
