By
using the Lackey Design Process, he was able to realize his
dream kitchen.
Let’s look at his experience: |
|
The
Problems:
· Dark interior
– in a beach house!
· The kitchen
was ‘boxed up’
· Original kitchen was dark and only
one person could work in it.
·
Even the refrigerator could not fit in the old kitchen!
· Color combinations
did not reflect the client’s values.
·
Lack of detail presented a drab and dull experience in a vacation
house
|
| |
The
Results:
A kitchen
system fully integrated into the living areas of the beach
house. |
| |
Design
Approach:
·
Improve traffic flows
· Integrate
kitchen into living room
· Improve
the use of light throughout
the kitchen area
· Use the
client’s dream themes throughout |
|
|
| |
 |
The
Kitchen Design:
· The Radius
theme is carried throughout
the kitchen and into the living areas to
create a complete integration.
· The prominent
rounded cooking island is
echoed throughout the cabinets, soffits
and even the glass block wall.
· Automotive
finishes were employed
throughout to create the client’s
requirements for a sleek and clean
presentation.

|
| |
·
Other unique features custom-built into the
cabinets:
- No external hardware is visibile
- Lights incorporated into cabinet interiors
that turn on when opened
- Night lights installed in the recessed,
kick-space at the bottom of the cabinets
·
Note the sleek finish achieved with the unique
use of automotive finishes rather than the
more traditional stain or paint approaches. |
