Cutting-edge by Brian Snow

As successful furniture shop in Cambodia construction materials informed, owner-designer Brian Snow decided to renovate the above kitchen in a new character. A new space that is well-connected to the adjacent living area and provides a spacious area with a modern profile was the new motif.

"Keeping everything very open helps to make the kitchen seem larger, and the ceiling higher," the designer said. "The overhead cabinets are also 14in deep, rather than the standard 12in, so they can hold large plates and platters."

Abundant storage is specified with a bank of cabinetry in chocolate brown glass doors and drawers framed in brushed aluminum which offers a sharp-edge appearance to the piece. This is reinforced by Café Brown granite countertops and a matching backsplash as well as the brown flooring.
