Eco Kitchen Makeover

A double-galley-style kitchen provides plenty of room for a family of four.

A wall of energy-efficient windows floods this kitchen with natural light but cuts down on temperature shifts in the room. Bamboo was the obvious choice for new cabinetry. The honey tone adds warmth and complements the sleek modern hardware. Finishes and paints with low levels of VOCs were used throughout the kitchen — reducing odours and indoor air pollution.
