We’re here in the new kitchen, and one of the features that we needed to work into the design that the homeowner had a very specific desire to do is this beautiful drain at the back of the sink. So, first time we have ever done one of these, and it’s plumbed drainage for dishes and flatware. And then additionally, we did an integral sink. We have a separate refrigerator and a separate freezer. They are full 36 inches wide, so we get plenty of storage for our family. We try to disguise them, and we have here refrigerators receiving these custom-built panels to match the rest of the cabinetry in the kitchen. And in order to make an alignment at the top and make it really feel like it’s part of the kitchen, we added some additional storage at the top in the form of these hopper cabinets.
