the ask
When this West Hollywood homeowner visited the eggersmann LA showroom, she explained that her vision of wanting a feeling of more space and reducing clutter. A bigger feel with a brighter and more modern aesthetic.
The old cabinets that the homeowner had inherited were white high gloss offering little personality in the space. Plus, the existing cabinetry had not been well-planned so there was a lot of unused space.
The new kitchen had to tie in with the existing fireplace and built-ins in the open plan great room.

The palette is both natural and very modern with a dark steel melamine cabinet finish in the cabinetry and slightly lighter bronze anodized aluminum on the island juxtapose perfectly with the white countertop and light wide-planked floors.
Every millimeter of space was utilized to give the homeowner as much storage to keep clutter at bay.

These are just a few of the specialized designs incorporated into this personalized kitchen:
