A bold, oversized yet simple door style, along with the gently curved crown molding, stone countertops and tumbled stone full-height backsplashes make this kitchen an elegant yet functional space. A custom designed hood acts as a piece of sculpture in the space. Limestone flooring was chosen to help dramatize the contrast to the dark stain of the custom cabinetry.
