Push-to-Open Kitchen in Grey and Cream

A grey and cream kitchen where the island fronts carry no handles at all — they open on push-to-open hardware — against a marble-look waterfall return.

The project

The island is the point of the room. Its fronts are plain grey slabs with no pulls, no gola channel and no visible edge detail: they open on push-to-open hardware, so the run reads as one uninterrupted surface from end to end. The counter is white quartz, returned to the floor at the end as a marble-look waterfall.

The perimeter is treated differently, on purpose. Base cabinets in the same grey carry long bar pulls, because a working run gets opened with full hands. Wall cabinets above are a cream gloss, framed by dark espresso surrounds and open shelves.

Appliances are built in — a full-height refrigerator and double wall ovens housed in a grey tall bank — and the splash is a dark subway tile that ties the espresso framing back to the grey cabinetry.
