Transitional Kitchen, San Francisco

David Woo Designs The quartz counter is waterfalled off both ends of the island which eliminated the need for false doors. The waterfall provides the illusion that it is holding up the overhang that is the bar. However, there is a functional pullout cabinet on either end of the island as well that allows access to the cabinets under the bar without requiring the bar stools to be moved out of the way. The middle cabinets under the bar do require the bar stools to be moved for access so only rarely needed kitchen supplies are stored there. The main appliance stack has a Bosch Speed Oven at the top which is both a microwave and convection oven with broiler. In the middle there is a oven with left swing door and a warming drawer at the bottom. This arrangement puts the oven at a nice height for accessing heavy dishes such as the Thanksgiving turkey and the swing door provides unobstructed entry.
