THE CITY SPACES HOME & DESIGN
Taking a step deeper into the home from the dining room, the kitchen sits in the back of the house with wide gaping French doors into the back patio allowing light and the radiant landscape to slip into the whitewalled space. At first glance, the room might not appear grand in size, but on further investigation the carefully planned kitchen has more than its fair share of storage space skillfully hidden in the natural folds of the house. From the outside of the home, between each French door is a structural pillar. From the inside in between each of the doors is a black reflective cabinet door that when opened reveals deep floor to ceiling pantry space—making innovative use of the previously unused space of the structural pillar. The kitchen’s true staple piece is its alluring black granite stone countertops that reflect both the deep granite slabs in the floor as well as the dark mirrored cupboard doors lining the walls. The rectangular island is the primary working space in the kitchen and sits delicately in the middle, complete with trendy stools and a stylish sterling silver sink. This too houses a magnificent amount of storage possibilities 20
