A closed-in Cedar Park kitchen opened to the family room, with an island where everyone gathers.
In this Cedar Park home, a peninsula bent around the kitchen, closing it in and making it hard to get into. The family wanted a bright, open kitchen joined to the family room beside it, with more room to work and seats at an island instead of a small kitchenette table.
The kitchen now opens straight into the family room, and the island is where everyone gathers. The clients told WOODWERD they had never worked with anyone who spent so much time on every detail, and they love this kitchen.
We took out the peninsula and reworked the island as the center of the room, with seating built in so the kitchen and family room work as one space. Plumbing changes were planned within the existing structure, and the cooktop, refrigerator and sink were balanced so the kitchen works as well as it looks. Navy lower cabinets ground the room, while white uppers and counters keep a kitchen this large feeling light. Herringbone tile gives the long wall texture and sets it apart from the white uppers.
