The Kitchen and Dining area was combined into a Country Style Kitchen, which later could get a Cook island and a new dining room.

Before
Finished in 2014, this kitchen you see here had a very awkward cook island with bad circulation. A bigger Cook island was created, by pushing out towards to backyard and re-arranging the work triangle.

This kitchen was a real team work between the designer and the client. The clients built all the cabinets themselves plus made their own backsplash and were their own contractors too.
