A pantry stocked with pull-out shelves makes it easy to reach items hiding in the back .
‘ WOW FACTOR ’ Microwave conveniently stored in the island to save counter space .

Space for entertaining was a must in this

Charleswood kitchen . The homeowners can now host a large Italian family of foodies , without sacrificing storage space or style . The open , airy design offers plenty of counter space , a wide centre island , and kitchen table allowing room for visiting , prepping , and serving .
Floor-to-ceiling cabinets that make use of vertical
space , a custom-made island with drawers on both sides , and an open shelf that tucks the microwave out of sight but within reach help efficiently de-clutter while leaving space for helpers . A colour palette of whites and neutrals with stainless steel accents brightens the space , while stylish touches like a modern pendant light and mosiac backsplash give the room a contemporary flair .
