Crisp Linen and Alder Custom Kitchen
A wide view reveals the full two-finish composition: Crisp Linen white cabinets, black-glazed clear alder cabinets and Taj Mahal quartzite arranged around the gathering peninsula.
This custom kitchen by Towne and Countree pairs shaker style doors in two coordinated finishes: Crisp Linen HDF and clear alder in a Natural finish with black glaze. Three-inch stiles and rails, five-piece drawer fronts and matching moulding give the cabinetry a tailored, traditional profile, while the darker alder accents add warmth and definition.
The design supports everyday routines and generous entertaining in one cohesive plan. A broad peninsula combines seating, storage and cleanup; the tall appliance wall groups refrigeration, double ovens and coffee service; and a reveal-installed apron-front sink centres the window run. Taj Mahal quartzite counters use a substantial 1¼-inch profile with an ogee edge. With cabinetry scaled to a nine-foot ceiling, the result feels architectural, functional and enduring.
