Glass cabinet doors on the back of the island make for great storage, and fir shelves in between can showcase the finer art.

We really enjoyed working with the Masons on this Chapel Hill kitchen transformation. Taking out two interior walls opened the space up for a smooth transition from kitchen to dining. The grays of the tile floor and stainless steel appliances compliment the custom fir cabinetry from Cabinet Creations, and the painted glass backsplash over granite counters makes this kitchen truly one of a kind. We added a new pantry with custom-built fir shelving, modified the existing laundry, and added new JELD-WEN Siteline windows that make for a stunning walk to the new espresso station with bar sink. We re-designed the front entry and added new conduit railing, using bright colors that really grab the eye. Inside the foyer, we added a custom fir bookshelf built-in for extra reading storage, and we can't forget the custom restaurant-style booth and table perfect for this family.
