The oversized upper cabinets help to bring the overall look of the kitchen back into scale while the lower cabinets were customized to follow the detailed angles of the walls. Hand forged black iron knobs add the final touch to the drawers and doors.
Custom Features
A hinged pot filler tap was installed in the wall behind the stove eliminating the need for hauling heavy water filled pots from the sink area. A mold was made of the maple corbels on the island fronts so that a replica could be made in light cast stone tying the hood canopy in with the surrounding cabinets.
Custom Features
Hand carved details on the corbels jumps to life when the glazing finds its way into the deeper recesses. The same effect is achieved on the ornate mitred doors and drawer fronts. The result is a look of antique furniture as opposed to kitchen cabinets.

Extra storage cabinets on the island provide support for the snack counter and a niche to tuck the stools away when not in use. A curved double door cabinet extends the counter top to the right of the cook top while allowing easy traffic flow around the island.
Custom Features
Square walnut pegs were used through the mortise and tenon joints on the doors and drawer fronts. Brushed stainless steel handles compliment the appliances and provide a stark contrast to the black counters and tile back splash.

The ¾" coffer panels create a three dimensional feel to an otherwise flat wall. The depth is further enhanced by applying a mahogany NGR base, hand rubbing a rosewood stain and then spraying a gloss lacquer overtop.
Custom Features
Crown mold caps the top of the bookcases and continues around the perimeter of the room. Hand cut fluting on the styles blends beautifully with the door and window casings, which were stained and lacquered to match.
