Vision In White
Location: Bayonne, NJ

Overview
Making a success of this kitchen meant making the maximum of a small space in a high-rise condominium. The client, a single, retired businesswoman, knew she wanted to use every inch of precious space wisely with an emphasis on having enough storage.

Challenges
Accommodating a washer/dryer unit in the kitchen, creating as much storage as possible within a confined space, and using the area above the water heater located in the kitchen. Bringing electric cables from the breaker box in the hallway into the kitchen without perforating the ceiling, which holds electric heat cables. Plus, the lighting presented similar obstacles.

Notes
Pull-out wire storage was designed for installation over the water heater so as not to waste space. orian countertops and backsplashes made the small space appear larger. Miele washer and dryer are hidden behind doors matching the cabinetry. A pass-through into the dining/living room area creates an open, airy look.
