With a double-duty island, breakfast and coffee station, and a suite of high-tech appliances, this kitchen is designed to feed you and your family easily, efficiently and in style. See the details of this smart stylish family kitchen in this HGTV video:

With a suite of modern amenities, great-looking traditional style and smart design meant to work with the way we live today, this kitchen has it all.

The first thing one sees in this kitchen is the bright blue cabinetry. The cabinets also extend all the way up to the ten-foot ceilings, creating loads of storage. Other patterns and colors have been used minimally and effectively, letting the cabinets really stand out. A traditional black-and-white basketweave tile and stainless steel appliances help balance the color scheme and keep the navy from being too dark.

Instead of a traditional island, this counter height dining table doubles as a prep area; it is a locally made custom piece. With seating for six, it serves as the perfect casual dining space. Well-placed outlets, hidden storage and stools that tuck easily underneath turn this table into a work surface perfect for meal prep or an after-school homework spot. A rectangular oversized chandelier is perfectly scaled to the island, and the open design doesn’t block the view into the great room.

Other smart ideas incorporated into this kitchen include the built-in coffee and breakfast area that make it easy for everyone to fuel up on the morning. It’s out of the way of the high-traffic areas of the stove, sink and fridge. A built-in microwave, high-efficiency convection oven and warming drawer make cooking simple and fun, while the commercial-grade cooktop with the built-in griddle and pot filler make it easy. A touch-free faucet even makes cleanup a breeze.
