Birch Kitchen Island
John and Jimmy DiResta build a custom kitchen island for their friend, a former chef who has been preparing meals on a 1940s hospital gurney. They start with a birch countertop, then add a custom base with 18 storage bins and cubbies. Other features include a slide-out butcher's block, a recessed bowl and a steel pot rack.
