Coto de Caza U Shaped kitchen Before Remodel
Originally, the home’s design was very standard. There wasn’t much in the way of character, as most of the construction and materials were fairly basic. Our task focused on transforming the space by incorporating personalized style and functionality into every part of renovated rooms.
First, the team removed everything to begin building the U-shaped kitchen that the owners praise as their new “mastercraft.” In addition, they took out much of the left outer wall to open the space. In the new open space, we installed a lengthy accordion glass door that opened up to the backyard pool deck. This created a refreshingly airy atmosphere by letting the natural light spill in, and also added the option of making the room an open-air kitchen.
Custom Cabinetry, Integrated Lighting, and Timeless Stone Finishes
Another brightening factor was the installation of recessed lighting and sleek hanging lamps with dimmer adjusters, enabling the owners to control the intensity of their illumination. The ceiling’s light fixtures highlight the thick Beaded Colonial crown moulding that tops the custom cabinets. In addition, skilled craftsmen built the cabinets in a Euro-style construction using solid maple wood. Moreover, Victorian doors, Glenmore Dark Bronze hardware, and a Straight White finish complete the refined look. Many of the upper cabinets have built-in interior lighting, glass-panel door inserts and glass shelving. We also added lighting to the undersides of the upper cabinets, for extra visibility and a touch of cozy ambiance.
The refrigerator was housed within the cabinetry for a more cohesive look. Storage perks include lazy-susans built into the corner shelves (which have folding doors), and vertical spice pulls. At the center of the kitchen, we built an island with the same stately moulding patterns found on the rest of the new construction.
All of the surfaces were topped with thick slabs of granite featuring mottled earth tones. Upon the back and right wall of the kitchen, we put in a natural stone tile backsplash to add to the warmth and complement both the countertops and the subtly rustic hardwood flooring.
Custom Hood
The star of the kitchen is the custom hood, which we designed and built ourselves. The craftsmen carved the hood from raw wood materials and then sanded it smooth. Next, they applied a white finish to the upper and lower sections. Finally, a contrasting Manganese finish defines the center. It features its own elegant moulding, as well as graceful corbels and interior lighting.
The client chose all stainless steel appliances to add a modern touch to the otherwise fully traditional kitchen. There’s an Imperial Ventilator Insert within the custom hood, which rests above a KitchenAid Commercial Style Gas Cooktop. The KitchenAid Architect Series II Built-In Double Ovens, GE Monogram 1.1 Cu. Ft. microwave oven and the Sub-Zero 48” built-in side-by-side refrigerator with an internal dispenser sit together on the kitchen’s right side. At the center island, the Rohl Shaws Original single-bowl fireclay apron sink sits between a Bosch 24” bar handle dishwasher and a GE Monogram Wine Reserve.
