CLASSIC
“I really like this look! I think the mix of finishes on kitchen cabinetry will become a classic–many people are entertaining in the kitchen and like the furniture and homey feel that this style delivers. It looks less matched and more gradually put together than when all cabinets, counters, etc. are all the same.” Patrice Munden, Patrice Munden Interior Design.

The French Door refrigerator has two doors placed side by side with a freezer unit on the bottom giving it a sleek and industrial look. Frequently used items are at a convenient height when opening one of the fridge doors. Flexible storing options can allow for a party platter to safely be kept without rearranging the entire fridge, carefully stacking other items to make room. Not only does the fridge have a stylish look, but also it is energy efficient ,keeping more cold air inside because you only open one door at a time.

Relegated to a scullery or outbuilding, the kitchen has gradually evolved into one of the most important rooms of the home. Today’s open floor plans have transformed the kitchen into a space for entertaining, as well as preparing meals – a gathering place where style now rivals function.
