Those of you who know us understand I am a very lucky woman. Twenty-six years ago my husband asked if I minded if he cooked – – are you kidding me? He has been cooking ever since. Our inside joke is take me to a strange and foreign place I have never been before – take me to the grocery store, the precursor to the kitchen.
Our kitchen is the heart and soul of the home and it is more than a place for cooking but also a place for expression and creativity on a lot of different levels. The design for this kitchen evolved from our last remodel and a recent design Carlie Korinek at CK Cabinetry & Design (Tucson) and I worked on for a home I thought Andy and I would build at Buckhorn Lake Resort. It was eerie that the space in Scott Asher’s plan was very similar to what we had designed just several weeks before so our hard work had paid off.
LAST REMODEL – Inspiration for our new home


When planning a kitchen there are many different design elements to consider. Cabinets, Appliances, Countertops, Backsplash, Lighting and Flooring. Andy and I really value clean lines of sight that open to both living and dining. This allows Andy to be part of the “dinner party” as he prepares fabulous spreads for friends and family. Although, we consider the “kitchen triangle” we are not always wed to it. We break all the rules by designing a kitchen that works for two. The design below incorporates many of the design elements that are important to us.

Until next week when we will reveal a little more about this kitchen and its design elements.
