the way to unite a space isactually to divide it. what imean here is that these 2 rooms now seem to blendtogether even though there is anew peninsula that divides them. the original kitchen wasa painted white look and the space was large enough that alarge portable island in thecenter almost seemed to small. now with this newkitchen design in place apeninsula extends from the wall anddivides the kitchen from theliving room. the rich mocha finish of thecabinetry ties in perfectly tothe living room beams and furniture. thepeninsula adds lots of greatstorage and a large work surface for thenew kitchen. beech woodcabinets from our

the name of this door is calledaspen and like many flat panel doors it is considered to be atransitional style door. it can look great in a numberof finished plus seems right athome in a variety of styles of spaces. it is important toalso point out that the aspen door is a solidcenter panel door. this createsa more solid construction and replacesa wood veneer with true solid panels of wood. the drawerfronts have been ordered withwhat is called a 5-piece look. this means thatinstead of a slab piece of beech wood a framed in frontwith a look to match the doors
