The Challenge: 9'-6" X 13'-0" Space
The Solution!
The sink elevation presented us with two particular challenges; How could we take advantage of the space in the corner while working around the plumbing drain/vent and keep a 36" wide sink centered on the window? Since the client had selected a 24" fully integrated Miele dishwasher and needed an adequate size drawer bank, the available space was dwindling rapidly. Using some thoughtful cabinet engineering, we were able to specify a Hafele Magic Corner 1 unit for full access to the corner through a 16-3/8" door and clear the plumbing vent. The cabinet housing the unit was integrated with the sink cabinet allowing part of the Magic Corner mechanism to be located underneath the modified depth sink. By doing this the sink remained centered on the window. Placing the garbage disposal on the left side of the sink let us utilize the remaining space under the sink for a pull-out trash receptacle.
The cabinet on the countertop was constructed to encapsulate the plumbing vent and still take advantage of some space next to a structural column. The upper section is recessed into the space to create 18" of depth. The lower section is recessed into the space to create a 21" deep appliance garage with a flip up door. To preserve as much counter space a possible and keep symmetry around the window we had the cabinet maintain a 14-3/4" footprint.
