Crafted with luxurious details and informed by the homeowners’ vision, this kitchen marries classic design with contemporary touches. The design centers around a mahogany island in a deep espresso wood stain, contrasting beautifully with cabinetry in a soft Swiss Coffee hue. Open shelving on the island allows easy access to daily items while floating shelves and storage towers with glass accents add refined lightness and elegance.

“I love the custom color combinations,” says Tracy Sullivan of Sullivan Custom Cabinets, Inc. “It complements the light wood floors and brass fixtures perfectly,” she adds.

Sullivan Custom Cabinets, Inc. inspired the homeowners’ design with cohesive elements, including paneled appliances and custom cabinetry, creating a seamless, timeless look.

White inset cabinets with brass knobs frame a honed marble backsplash punctuated by a vintage-inspired brass pot filler. Champagne bronze and brass finishes throughout the kitchen lend a sophisticated warmth, balancing the modern layout with heritage touches.

The wet bar, finished in a bold Charleston Green with white oak shelving, pays homage to local Lowcountry colors while adding character to the home’s design. This bar features a temperature-controlled wine cooler, a stainless steel ice maker, and a Delta champagne bronze faucet with touchless technology, combining beauty with convenience.

The kitchen also features a standout Hallman range with a dual-fuel function, precision control, a vintage-inspired look, and a furniture-style dine-in island with bar seating and shelving.

Sullivan Custom Cabinets, Inc. enhanced each feature with a modern edge, creating a space that feels not only welcoming but enduring. With a balance of vintage appeal and modern convenience, this Charleston kitchen is a testament to their craft and legacy.
