No. 9 A Tiered Approach to Proportion
The concept of stacked components and graduated overlapping heights was brought to a new level of sophistication in this urban kitchen.

The tallest point of the pantry, thickness of the countertops, and the dining surface resting effortlessly on the prep and cook surface convey a proportionally tiered balance to this contemporary space.
