Counter/Cabinet Unit

This unit was the result of an Interior Designer’s idea to replace a brick planter, located in the floor that separated the kitchen from the dining area.

After the planter was removed, critical measurements and digital images were taken of the area. The design called for the cabinet unit to fill the void in the floor left by the planter, wrap around an existing vertical panel at the end of the kitchen counter and mate with the front leading edge of the kitchen countertop and cabinets. On the dining room side, the vertical corner cabinet required an opening inside to access a wall switch.

Sliding doors on the lower cabinet were selected for the dining room side as opposed to hinged doors to save space, since the dining area was relatively narrow. Totally concealed door hinges on the kitchen side matched existing designs. Adjustable shelves throughout the unit solved the client’s storage needs.

The wood choice was birch, stained to match existing millwork and sealed with three coats of urethane.
