COLUMBUS, OHIO This kitchen's unique design was achieved using varying shapes and sizes as well as rare and exquisite materials. The clients desired a modern culinary kitchen with a curving island that connected to their dining area. Challenges included integrating a curved island into an area where the doors and windows could not be moved because of the limestone façade on the exterior. Removing an existing peninsula and replacing it with a racetrack circulation pattern allowed for the new 16-foot island. Other design features include a second coffer system with custom light fixture mounts shaped like the island. The result is a space that brings the clients joy every time they use it. xceence E 2020 EVENING OF R E S I D E N T I A L K I T C H E N $ 1 0 0 , 0 0 1 T O $ 1 5 0 , 0 0 0 REVENT REMODELING & CONSTRUCTION AUSTIN, TEXAS This narrow galley kitchen was small, dark and dysfunctional. As entertainers and huge foodies, the clients felt isolated from guests in the living room when they were preparing food in the kitchen. To create an open, beautiful and functional space, the wall dividing the kitchen and living room was removed for better entertaining. This also provided clear sight lines and views into the backyard. Custom white cabinetry on the perimeter now contrasts with the navy 14-foot kitchen island and provides ample serving and work space. Brass hardware and fixtures, a navy hex backsplash and a high-end appliance package help complete the design.
