Kitchen Remodel

This kitchen centers on a run of shaker-style cabinetry finished in a soft white, paired with a quartz countertop that carries a full waterfall edge into the island. The tile backsplash is set in a running-bond pattern to keep the eye moving along the run of cabinetry rather than stopping at a grid of grout lines.

Storage runs floor to ceiling on the perimeter wall, with pull-out and drawer storage doing the work usually left to a separate pantry closet. The island seats three and hides trash, recycling and small-appliance storage behind a bank of drawer fronts rather than open shelving.
