Private Residence Small Kitchen

Kitchen Designed by Michael Botelho

Bon Appétit on the backsplash is the focal point in this small, efficiently designed kitchen, greeting everyone and setting the welcoming mood. The efficiently designed living space includes an island workspace that wraps around the built-in bench of the casual dining area.

This efficiently designed kitchen makes this small space feel big:

• Lots of cabinetry keeps everything neat and organized so the countertops only keep a few convenient items.
• Other commonly used items can be kept in the drawers making them easily accessible when needed.
• The sink in the island is right-sized for both food preparation tasks and clean-up.
• The raised backsplash of the curved island hides the sink from the adjacent dining area.
• Island counterspace is convenient to both the refrigerator and the induction stovetop.
• There is a dishwasher conveniently placed next to the sink on the right side, across from the stove.
• Layers of lighting options are available for every need, whether for specific tasks or general comfort.

An efficient work triangle keeps everything convenient in this small kitchen designed by Michael Botelho.

A walk-in pantry in the corner was requested by the homeowners. This is currently a big trend in Florida where they spend the winters. A walk-in pantry keeps dry goods, canned goods, and much more, all conveniently stored with easy access.
