The Moorecroft Kitchen: Lighter, Brighter, and Cheerier

This kitchen renovation was designed to brighten the space and add a cheery element. One of the key features is the incorporation of the customer’s existing kitchen table into the new granite countertop, giving a very contemporary look and feel. The white cabinetry with a Kashmir cream granite countertop and decorative lighting makes this space a joy to work in or to team up with family and friends for a great cooking party.

Renovation highlights include:

• Chalk painted table legs in custom colour.
• The counter top is a Kashmir cream granite with a simple square edge.
• The decorative light over the table is: Nuevo, Zeus – has a 60 watt STANDARD bulb base (HGVF404 gold).
• Detail of the integration of granite to existing table: The original table was approximately 30 x 60″. It was reconfigured to extend along one side to increase the over hand so seating could be accommodated.
• Lights over the working section of the island are: Nuevo, Karl (JR). They have a 40 watt candelabra base – HGMO134 – white with gold interior, 9.5″ diameter.
• Custom designed, integrated organizer with chalkboard and magazine holder.
• Custom walnut floating shelf with integrated functioning puck lights.
• The backsplash is: Sarana Tile, Deco D’Antan, (TRESBLGRI), white and grey in a 24″ x 24″.

Design Challenge

The homeowner wanted to incorporate her beautifully worn dining room table into the her new kitchen, and the finished result is absolutely genius.
