Warm Contemporary

Stainless Steel Cabinets

“The stainless steel slab door starts off this kitchen’s very linear look. Long stainless steel handles continue the contemporary linear flow. We used a copper strip above and below the cabinets to break up the stainless steel look while maintaining the clean line. Symmetry was crucial in this design, evident in the island’s drawers. There’s a 30” drawer base to left and an 18” to right, but 30” headers to keep balance."

"By introducing earthy textures, the kitchen did not become sterile. The glass tile backsplash, stone floor and granite countertops all played off the copper strip, moving away from cold contemporary to a little more warmth.”
