Custom Banquette & White Kitchen

Every renovation has a story, and this one turned out to be a bit of a fairy tale. From toad to prince, this small award winning NYC kitchen is now a livable, usable dream kitchen. Full of fun design dilemmas, the biggest was how to transform this into an eat in kitchen while keeping lots of prep and cabinet space? The all custom banquette was the key. Hidden behind one of the benches is a heating and cooling unit. The bench comes easily apart for maintenance with the turn of four screws. Everything from the custom solid cherry table, to the angle of the seating, to the stepped back cabinet nestled next to it, are designed for comfort… and to solve a design problem. -Winner of the Master Design Award Qualified Remodeler -Renovation/Design: Paula McDonald Design Build -Photo: Mark Boswell
