KDS was excited to partner with local Palo Alto interior design firm, Design Loft, to create a contemporary kitchen to match the modern architecture and interiors of this newly built, custom house. The owners wanted to present a gorgeous property for sale in the competitive, high-end market in Palo Alto. So, this house needed a well-designed kitchen with excellent finishes to appeal to Silicon Valley executives and their families as potential buyers.

KDS designed the kitchen space and provided the cabinetry, while Design Loft chose a combination of quarter sawn walnut and white gloss foil by Ovation Cabinetry on flat paneled doors for a clean, contemporary look.

Material choice was a big factor in determining the style, but other features add to the overall look. Lift-up glass doors, an extra-large island with custom-built steel legs, soapstone countertops, linen-like glass globe pendants, and mid-century modern chairs create a warm, sophisticated, and contemporary kitchen.
