Levels Above
Contemporary Dining Room, Seattle
To open up the kitchen to the dramatic views, I removed two columns at the end of the sink counter and a bulky soffit that ran the length of the room. Cabinets in this expansive kitchen are caramelized bamboo. To gain room for the eleven appliances, I extended the kitchen past the pantry door. The linear, lighted cabinets on the top level connect the two walls on either side of the pantry. Covering the pantry door with bamboo blended it into the overall space. The far wall angles away from you. We used a stack of open shelves to transition into it.
