The kitchen in this 1908 home was the hub of the family’s daily activities from meals, entertaining friends and family, charging devices, feeding the dogs, and opening mail.

They wanted a kitchen that would accommodate all of their daily activities with room to move and a protected work zone as friends and family gather for casual Friday night meals or important holidays.
