Centrally located kitchen has great looks and also achieves a feeling of intimacy, despite its open, light-filled surroundings

​​​​​​​Easy to prep and cook in, with a close work triangle, a plethora of high-end appliances, plenty of storage, and well-lit benchtop surfaces, this designer kitchen is also a pleasure to look out from or to entertain dinner guests from. The warm wood tones on the island front also connect with the floor-to-ceiling wood shelving at the far end of the entertainment zone, helping to draw the large space together.
