A dark pattern in quartered makore wood is contrasted by quartered anigre light veneers on either side.

These two materials appear throughout the kitchen, with the darker veneer framing cabinets and corner units, and the lighter anigre veneer fronting doors and drawers.The kitchen also features a circular mesquite wood countertop, which accentuates a semi-circular, glass-fronted display cabinet. Other countertops feature slabs of Suelo Marinao Labradorite granite.Functionality has not been compromised, however. Two large parallel islands create multiple work and dining stations.
