When Designer Kim Clements, owner of J.A.S. Design Build, tackled her own kitchen refresh, she knew exactly what she wanted: “a social kitchen, but also a working kitchen.”
Balancing function and aesthetic was top of mind in this small Seattle bungalow that was built in 1904. “Bungalows aren’t known for having a lot of space,” added Kim. “But everyone always ends up in the kitchen, which is why the island is configured the way it is. It’s more like a floating peninsula.”
A PEOPLE-FORWARD FLOORPLAN
The backside of the island seats up to seven people, and it’s uniquely positioned. “Guests can have a seat at the counter and grab a wine glass off the shelf while I’m cooking,” Kim explains.
