Reston, VA

This waterfront home along the Delaware shores needed a complete design overhaul.  The previous layout included an awkwardly located island and an uninspiring design palette.

The design revamp features sleek modern materials paired with a warm rift white oak.  The light blue/grey high gloss cabinets are strategically placed to reflect the ocean view while also housing the fully integrated refrigerator and pantry.  The waterfall marble countertop envelopes a wine storage cabinet on three sides, creating a sculptural ending point of the island.  The same countertop material was used as the backsplash, which showcases the dramatic veining.  

The kitchen also features bi-fold tilt up cabinets with a frosted glass door and an appliance garage to creatively store away the homeowner’s Nespresso machine.
