I LOVE the cabinet over the window. Normally I like having window views clear and open, but if you don't have the best view that's a neat idea!

I also like the cabinet-window. I think it's a great way to shake things up if you already have lots and lots of windows. You still get the light in and have a functional space.

I work for another well-known T.O. design firm, but I'm stoked to see this on here!

Love all the marble.

Kevin Waltz did a kitchen in the early '90s with a bank of uppers backed by windows - quite beautiful.

Wow!

We "south of the border" folks could learn a lesson from our neighbors up north.....these modern kitchens are stunning and they LOOK very rich and luxurious.(If I'm spending a ton of money on a kitchen reno, I want it to look like I spent a ton of money.) The problem with American cabinetry is that all the modern stuff is either cheap looking or it isn't truly contemporary modern.....they are more of a "transitional" modern.

Luckily for Torontonians, the housing market is still rather robust, with values remaining constant. Canada never got caught up in the housing bubble that has so many Americans in over their heads. In other words, a $75,000 kitchen renovation will still bring a good return on investment.
