We were euphoric that these clients wanted DRAMA.  Brunette, swarthy textural surfaces aren't done enough in our opinion.  The shimmering wavy island panels and glass, ocean-tinged tile swim buoyantly against the sable wood hues.  Yes, those are individual and distinct-toned walnut boards cladding the refrigerator section....and yes, that was NOT easy...but was so worth it!
The frosted glass door streams light into an otherwise darkened drop center/pantry, as well as the entry from the garage.  It isn't preferable to enter into one's domain through a shadowy, crepuscular, dungeon-like vestibule...hence why we strive to create breezy, welcoming light travel throughout.

Of Note — Jewelry can be gaudy and obnoxious...but, in this case, carefully consider the luscious amber island pendants.  Tastefully evident and resplendent...and delivering pleasant light to one's face while concurrently throwing open-bottomed, direct illumination to the work surface.
