"Besides being designed for entertaining large numbers, it is also part of the main space of the house where the couple and their four kids would gather. In this family everyone had pretty defined roles: the husband picked up fresh ingredients on his way home from work and then did the cooking; the wife did the cleanup; the kids ate and did their homework. We really discussed each role and formed the space to fit." Photo 7 of 10 in Bruce Bolander on Kitchen Design by Jaime Gillin
