Kitchen & Bath Business - November/December 2017 - 44

Before and After

ABOVE Decorative elements

in this kitchen include a farmhouse sink, polished nickel
cabinet hardware, a white
quartz countertop and a large
island pendant.

MIDDLE RIGHT The former

90s kitchen was closed off
inside a peninsula with a tiny
island. The designer replaced
the cherry oak flooring with
a wide-plank oak with a
matte finish, which she says
disguises dust specks.

Family Friendly

Kitchen renovation provides ample function
and an open layout for a party of four
A LEAK IN AN UPSTAIRS BATHROOM was the impetus of this early 90s kitchen
renovation when all the floors on the main level needed to be replaced. The
clients' main goals with their new kitchen were to improve its functionality
and flow, incorporate a larger island and connect it to the adjacent breakfast
seating area and living room.They also wanted an open, airy space with some
thoughtful design elements that cater to their two active children.

UPDATING THE ISLAND & LAYOUT

BY CHELSIE BUTLER

The first rule of business for Allison Jaffe of Austin,Texas-based Allison Jaffe
Interior Design was to remove the restrictive peninsula and make room for
a larger, better-functioning island. She incorporated an induction cooktop
into the side of the island's quartz countertop instead of in the middle so the
homeowners' children could have access to the largest amount of counter
space. The island also features another aspect that keeps the kids in mind.
"Adding rustic, engineered wood plank to the backside of the unit was a
well-thought-out decision," said Jaffe, who used SketchUp to renovate this
kitchen. "This was selected not only as a decorative feature but also to serve
as a protective barrier to withstand the everyday use of two small children."
The existing passageway between the kitchen and the formal living room
was quite narrow in the former layout, so the designer opened this up an additional five feet by moving the double ovens away from that area to the wall
adjacent to the two-column refrigerator.
"The upgraded refrigerator, undercabinet microwave and the oven/steamer
were relegated next to each other to condense the amount of travel time â
around the kitchen and to create the perfect work triangle,"explained Jaffe.
