A Dream Kitchen in Atlantic Beach, Long Island
Our client had a vision in mind for a dream kitchen in their Long Island home. They wanted something elegant and luxurious, yet relaxed enough for cooking and socializing in a large space that connected the indoor kitchen to the patio and outdoor kitchen. The white color palette and fine design elements create a classic traditional kitchen, especially when combined with warm wood floors and a walnut island. Great lighting includes recessed ceiling spots, under-counter lights, backlit cabinets, and spectacular island pendants, all providing the perfect ambiance that mingles well with the glossy white subway-tile backsplash. Perimeter countertops are brown antique granite, and the island is misty white marble. The custom-designed hearth is flanked with pullout spice racks and has an elliptical curve and keystone. The hood insert is by Prestige with a remote blower and switch. To complete this dream kitchen, we added a microwave by GE Monogram and two integrated Bosch dishwashers . The farm sink is by Whitehaus, and the faucet is from Rohl. Read more details here…
Cabinetry Used: The white-painted cabinetry is Bentwood with a custom hand-brushed finish and Warwick inset door, available exclusively at Kitchen Designs by Ken Kelly. The wall that houses the SubZero wine refrigerator, freezer, and Wolf wall ovens is also walnut in a Praline stain.
