This kitchen was a gut remodel in a traditional split-floor plan home. We made the most use of the space by removing the wall between the dining room and kitchen and opening up the entire space. We then created a sweeping island with sink as the centerpiece and intelligent floor to ceiling custom cabinets on two full walls. By adding smart storage features like gliding drawers instead of shelves, and appliance cubbies on two ends, we made the most use of space for this lovely family.
