Take a look inside my home kitchen, where the island is the centerpiece.

This custom island from feels like it was built around the way I actually cook and host:

The ventilated produce drawers keep ingredients fresh and close at hand. The custom inserts hold all the things I reach for constantly like parchment paper, gloves, and foil. There’s even a hidden pull-out waste drawer that keeps the workflow clean without disrupting the space.

My favorite part is the raised chef’s counter inspired by my love for hosting people in my home. I’ve always believed food tastes better when guests can gather around the process, ask questions, share stories, and be part of the experience while I cook.

The Maya Nut wood countertops are unreal. Beautiful craftsmanship, durable, and built to last through years of meals, late nights, and community around the table.

If you’re dreaming about building a kitchen around the way you actually live, cook, and host, my friends at Obra can help make it happen!
