Let’s face it: we can’t live without them. Whether you are a gourmet cook or not, chances are you have a few “exposed” appliances on your kitchen counters. Either that or you have them tucked away in your cabinets and you have to wrestle with pots and pans every time you need to use them; worse yet, you do have an appliance garage in a corner with a roll-up door that often gets stuck and all it holds it your pasta maker. We love all these wonderful kitchen toys, from coffee grinders to bread makers…if only we could access them easily without cluttering our counters! Worry no more, I have the solution! One thing I have been doing lately in remodeling and new construction is adding depth to at least one of the countertops in the kitchen, thus providing room to house a continuous appliance garage as part of the cabinets. I design them with top hinged-retractable doors (an upper light turns on when you push them back) and pull out platforms on rollers where all your appliances sit; that way you can bring them closer to you, use them, put them away and close the door for a clean look!
