Hand-scraped, wide-plank flooring was
used in place of traditional wood flooring.

Woe Is "C"
Cabinets, countertops and convenience
provided ample trials in a kitchen remodel
An Atlanta homeowner definitely wanted what he wanted when it
came to the renovation of his kitchen. An international attorney who has
lived on several continents, this homeowner brought requests based on
his exposure to kitchens in the U.S., Europe and Asia.

Challenge 1 - Replicate Custom Cabinets from a Magazine
At the initial meeting, the homeowner presented designer/builder
Brad Cruickshank, CR, of Atlanta-based Cruickshank Remodeling, a photograph of a kitchen with a unique cabinet style he wanted. Cabinet fronts
were full overlay with vertical fluting of a driftwood-like-finished wood.
Everything about this was a challenge - from matching the cabinet
style to duplicating the finish to choosing a cabinet shop, as using the
same shop that built the cabinets from the magazine photo was not possible because of its location. The Cruickshank team inquired with a local
cabinet shop with which they'd worked on many custom projects, as well
as a kitchen cabinet showroom with multiple lines. Both submitted preliminary samples of the 3-in.-wide scalloped door style, but the team knew it
would be a challenge to layout the kitchen on this rigid module.

Gourmet-style features include two sinks, a two-burner induction
cooktop, an undercounter icemaker and a wine cooler.

While potential vendors were preparing their door samples, Cruickshank and the company's production manager, Tim Joyce, CLC, experimented with the second major challenge: the finish. They purchased
several white oak boards and cut them into panels for experimenting.
They used lye and hydrogen peroxide, in various strengths and exposure
times, to try to reproduce the driftwood-like finish of the cabinets in the
inspiration photo. The peroxide treatment pulled the tannins out of the
oak. Once they achieved the look they wanted, they submitted these
samples to the potential cabinet providers.
