prep & enjoy

Each of these two welcoming spaces is tucked away just off a stylish kitchen, ready for storing and preparing food or enjoying a casual breakfast or family lunch.

PANTRY POWER
This ultimate prep area from Shoshanna Shapiro of Sho and Co in Frederick, Maryland, has charm galore. A finalist in the most recent Kitchen Design Contest, this kitchen’s adjunct pantry is a fresh, country-inspired room with warm accents, tons of flexible storage, and valuable working space. The added Sub-Zero 24” Designer Undercounter Beverage Center is ready to store extra drinks for the homeowner’s next get-together.
