Lancaster Residence

For this client who entertained frequently and cooked seriously, their old kitchen was outdated, inefficient and inconsistent with the style of the rest of the house. To create the Asian-inspired kitchen of their dreams, the space was completely renovated, including the adddiiton of a much needed pennisula to prep meals. Through the use of sleek lines, warm cherry cabinets, bamboo detailing on select cabinet doors, and vertically-oriented, green glass mosaic tiles that evoke the look of bamboo, an understated Asian aesthetic was created. Two-toned cabinet detailing, varied height upper cabinets and furniture-like legs on the pennisula were some ofthe details that provided dramatic visual impact and interest. Quartz countertops, LED recessed lighting and an induction cooktop were green design features than were equally practical and beautiful. Designed by Yuko Matsumoto, CKD, CBD.
