This redesign in Vienna, Virginia, used to be a dining room and small kitchen but was completely redone by Alex Rodriguez of Priority One Contractors Corp. to meet every desire of the homeowner. The new design was to incorporate a vaulted ceiling in the existing family room to create a transition between the dining room and kitchen.
It was also important that the new design have privacy from the kitchen to the dining room without losing the natural light emitted from the three front windows. To add the desired seclusion without doing away with the sunlight, Rodriguez used a pocket door with glazed glass.
The small family entertains often, so the space needed to be accommodating for gatherings, while still functioning for simple meals. A desk area provides a space to catch up on paperwork and organize the family's items.
The Architect Series cooktop by KitchenAid is the perfect workspace for a cook interested in entertaining. It provides plenty of area to whip up multiple dishes, and its location in the island allows the chef to interact with all guests. The island is also well-lit, shining a spotlight on the focal point of the room. Granite countertops add a luxurious touch and complement the white oak hardwood floor. In the end, the new design was a perfect addition to the home.
