Design Insight
Ken’s kitchen lacked the practicality he needed for everyday use. By removing a built-in corner pantry, MJ Kitchen & Bath’s designer created a more efficient layout with ample storage and workspace around the cooking area. Our interior designer, Sarah, collaborated with Ken to choose standout elements like the mantle-style wood hood by Stanisci Designs and the bright, modern tile backsplash. High-end built-in appliances shaped the kitchen’s refined look, with features like a paneled undercounter double-drawer refrigerator (to the right of the sink) blending effortlessly into the cabinetry.
