Cooking should be at the heart of a kitchen design, and range alcoves offer exactly that. This traditional layout, often seen in period homes, prioritizes a culinary focus — one that puts your range front and center. And yet, a stove nestled in an alcove can be an awkward feature to design around, especially if you want it to make a visual statement.
Marrying style and practicality in our modern kitchen ideas takes skill. Just like fusing two flavors in a dish, you want the components to coalesce and form a full-bodied final result. While we're cooking, we want a cohesive kitchen layout that allows for easy flow, but we also want something as utilitarian as our range to be a thing of beauty, too.
