Parallel Kitchen with Wood Cabinets and Ribbed-Glass Fronts
About Kitchen Area Interiors
Common questions from homeowners.
It is a parallel kitchen, with counters running along two facing walls and a walkway down the middle. That layout keeps the sink, hob and storage all within a couple of steps.
The lower cabinets are in a warm dark wood, while the upper cabinets have cream frames with ribbed-glass shutters. The mix keeps the kitchen feeling grounded below and light above.
The countertop is black granite, which is tough, easy to wipe down and handles daily cooking well. It contrasts nicely against the wood and the pale tile behind it.
Yes, there is a wall-mounted chimney over the hob and a full tall unit for pantry storage, along with plenty of drawers and overhead cabinets. It is set up for a family that cooks regularly.
It can. A parallel layout works well even in narrow kitchens, and the cabinet run can be shortened while keeping the same finishes. Share your kitchen measurements with the designer to plan it.
