This wide view of the open kitchen from the great room highlights the efficient layout and serious style of the space, from the custom copper and black light fixture above the waterfall quartz center island to the graphic black and white tile floor.

The island's waterfall quartz top with veining offers display space for vases of flowers or bowls of fruit that add color and texture to the kitchen. The waterfall feature was an important design decision, since this kitchen sits open to the great room.

The cabinets and drawers in the back of the island have a rustic gray finish that shows the grain of the wood, to give the island a special presence that contrasts with the black cabinetry used on the perimeter of the kitchen.
