When friends bought their new home in Malibu, the first room needing attention was the kitchen. Sorry, no "before" pix, but it was a rabbit warren of small spaces, cupboards, unnecessary walls and the furnace was boxed in in the middle. By moving the furnace to a less invasive location, blowing out all interior walls, exposing the ceiling, adding a skylight the kitchen grew to a spacious gathering place open to the Dining and Family Rooms with spectacular views of the Pacific. The dramatic granite of the island blends with that on the other counters, but provides much more interest. With a coordinating tile backsplash and carefully thought out lighting, day and night this is where family and guests tend to congregate.
