When remodeling the kitchen of this Powhatan home, the owners considered the flow of how they move about the room. Then, with the designers at Custom Kitchens Inc., they created a plan that would strategically place Sub-Zero Wolf stainless appliances throughout. The range hood and Crystal Cabinet Works island base are painted Benjamin Moore’s Wrought Iron to contrast with the lighter Stone Bluff finish on the rest of the cabinetry. Countertops of quartzite were selected to give a feel that’s less traditional while not quite modern.
