Exceptional Living

How do you design a kitchen with great storage — without making it too bulky? Eiesland accomplishes this by creating two parallel islands. The aniline dyed Anigre used on the cabinets is light in color to promote an airy feel. This is enhanced by the stainless steel cabinets and fixtures. Using islands also puts everything within easy reach &mdash from smooth-gliding flatware drawers, to a mix master lift-up mechanism. The dark black absolute granite provides durability — and a dramatic flair for this Glencoe home.
