62nd Place, LaGrange Highlands IL
This elegant, traditional kitchen was designed for a new home being built in a lovely older suburb. It’s large U-shape design allows for the kitchen to be open to the other living spaces in the home. This line of sight gives us the perfect opportunity to create 2 focal points: the gorgeous island in the foreground, and above and behind that is the beautifully detailed cooktop area.
The individual ingredients in this rich Cherry kitchen are what elevate it above the norm. Beginning with a heavily detailed door style that features a beefy frame, mitered corners, and double-beading, the door sets the tone. To that we have added beautifully turned solid cherry decorative legs, flanking the range area and the sink. The next layer includes the elaborately scrolled corbels, placed on the island and hood. Completing the hearth hood are classic fluted pieces and arched pieces, and the whole unit is topped with an intricate grape overlay. The final layers in this eye catching kitchen are the over-sized crown molding featuring a dentil insert, and the charming mullion glass doors.
This kitchen is not only beautiful, but smart too. Hidden storage abounds, making every area of the kitchen a usable workspace. Added conveniences include a prep sink in the island, and a pot-filler faucet at the cook-top. This kitchen is a thoughtful work space wrapped up in delightful traditional details.
