Handsome Walnut, Wheaton, IL
Built in the 1980s, this colonial home still featured its original kitchen, which was configured with inconvenient access to a newly minted outdoor kitchen and entertaining space. The PB Kitchen Design team used the warmth of the cabinet finish and the soft, rounded shape of the island to attract conversation with guests during meal prep. The glass tile backsplash does not hold back and travels to the ceiling which makes for an attractive finishing detail.
