Gray Lacquer Cabinets & Wood Veneer Finishes

This kitchen remodel showcases sleek gray lacquer and wood veneer kitchen cabinetry and paneling. The combination creates a minimalist yet elegant design, accentuated by geometric tiles and glass accents. The Carbon Gray lacquer cabinetry works harmoniously with the Bergamo Elm veneer, offering a striking contrast while maintaining a clean, modern aesthetic.

Floating Island & Open Gray Kitchen Shelving

A floating island with a pedestal base and open shelving add style to the gray kitchen along with integrated storage solutions. The island's sleek design provides plenty of counter space, with the gray lacquer cabinets offering a smooth finish that's easy to keep clean. The floating island creates a sense of lightness, while maintaining its central role in the kitchen. In addition to its storage, it includes built-in features like a sink, dishwasher, and pull-out cabinetry drawers, making it simple and inviting for everyday use.

Coordinating Wine and Coffee Bar

The kitchen’s coordinating wine and coffee bar extends the gray kitchen aesthetic. The bar area uses the same materials as the kitchen, ensuring a cohesive and elegant design. With ample storage and built-in shelving, the wine and coffee bar serves as a functional extension, perfect for both intimate gatherings and larger events. Its design accentuates the modern vibe of the entire space while maintaining a clean, uncluttered look.

Client Vision

As avid cooks and hosts, the kitchen was a natural focal point for these homeowners. We worked together to design the kitchen to suit their new, custom-built home. The home’s double-height interior and open floor plan allowed for the kitchen, bar, dining, living, and patio to openly flow into each other, with each room distinctly retaining its own character. All spaces were designed to allow a free line of sight to the expansive view of Austin’s Hill Country beyond.
