Photography by Greg Hadley Photography Now A CotY Award Winning Residential Kitchen by NARI-DC Chapter: Builder Grade Kitchen Suite Transitions to French Colonial Elegance. The kitchen was redesigned to allow for more light and improve flow for the chef and family to entertain. Centering a large window in the workspace and relocating the rear yard access door made this kitchen much brighter and inviting. A 12” steel beam, that hung down above the length of the kitchen, was discovered leading to the design of the coffered ceiling. The sea glass pendant lights that hang over the large kitchen island give the space a unique coastal style touch.
