Pacific Palisades Oak Kitchen

Designed for a home in Pacific Palisades, this Japandi kitchen pairs oak framed fronts with fluted glass and a curved island.

The deep blue cabinetry and white Dekton countertop create a bold yet calm material palette.

Deep blue upper cabinets with fluted glass fronts add texture against the Dekton backsplash.

Vertical fluted oak wraps the curved island, giving the kitchen a stronger architectural focal point.

The built-in refrigerator features a sleek metallic finish that stands out against the kitchen’s bright matte palette.

Oak veneer fronts highlight the natural character of the wood and a calm, Japanese-inspired expression.

The appliance garage keeps small appliances tucked away while maintaining a clean and uncluttered countertop.

A built-in oak niche combines open shelving with fluted paneling below, echoing the island’s detailing.

Solid wood handles are designed to preserve the look of a handleless kitchen while making the cabinets practical to open.

A full-height Dekton backsplash frames the cooking area, its natural veining adding movement and depth.

A pull-out spice organizer keeps everyday ingredients neatly stored and easy to reach.

Fluted paneling brings architectural sophistication, paired with a built-in outlet for added function.

Open oak shelving creates a functional display space while keeping the kitchen light and visually balanced.

Warm oak tones extend into the dining area, creating a natural connection between kitchen and living spaces.

Tall blue cabinetry anchors the corner of the kitchen while natural light fills the space.
