ELEET PROJECTS · CORAL GABLES, FLORIDA
Touch open.
Beautifully simple.
A modern kitchen with less on display
and more thought behind every surface.
THE BRIEF
Sometimes,
less is more.
The brief was simple: a clean modern kitchen without handles or finger grooves. In this home near the Grove in Coral Gables, the design had to make a compact galley kitchen feel open.
Electric opening cabinetry, visible wall above the cabinets, and storage beyond the kitchen brought that idea together.
Originally featured as a $2.2 million residence.
ELECTRIC TOUCH OPENING
A touch is
all it takes.
Lift up wall cabinets open with a finger. Drawers open with a touch or a gentle knee bump, leaving the fronts free of handles and finger grooves.
Lift up. Stay open.
The wall cabinet doors can remain raised during meal preparation, keeping storage accessible.
Clean lines. Easy access.
Electric drawers pair a continuous exterior with practical access while working in the kitchen.
PROPORTION OVER MORE CABINETS
Give the room
space to breathe.
Wall cabinets stop below the ceiling and sit higher than usual, with their mounting height chosen around both clients. The visible wall helps the galley feel deeper and less crowded.
In a larger kitchen, taller cabinetry may create a cozier feeling. Here, leaving space above the cabinets was the considered choice.
THINK BEYOND THE KITCHEN
One home.
More room to live.
The adjacent family room contributes storage the kitchen needs. A separate workstation changes character when the day is done.
Entertainment, with a little extra.
A large entertainment unit incorporates pantry storage for kitchen overflow, alongside space for children’s toys.
Work here. Then put it away.
Pocket doors conceal the desk area for entertaining. The chair rolls into a utility room, returning the piece to a furniture like appearance.
THE SAME THINKING, THROUGHOUT
Appliances that
follow the design.
Miele built in appliances continue the modern composition. The wine refrigerator also uses electric touch opening to maintain the clean look.
