This modest kitchen and rear yard renovation created a new, open and light-filled kitchen and communicating exterior cedar patio and yard area from a very dark and difficult space in the rear of an in-town row home. New heated travertine floor, maple cabinets, granite counters, built-in appliances and mirrored back-splashes compliment each other to create a very open and "urban" feel to the space. Note no large refrigerator! The refrigerators and freezer are all under counter to keep the space open feeling and the new built-in banquette with full wall mirror above creates a light filled, soft end point to this galley kitchen bringing in the welcoming garden beyond. New low voltage cable lighting and custom glass table add the finishing touches to this wonderful little space.
