President's Award: 2006 "Best of the Best" Kitchen Design
After fifty years, this home was ready to enter the 21st century! Landon not only upgraded the kitchen, he doubled the square footage of the home, adding an upstairs master suite and an amazing media room!  By keeping an open wall space, Landon enabled the home owner to display two Malei Young paintings. Displaying art connects the the kitchen to the adjacent living/dining rooms. The open wall space also created room for a 30"-deep pantry chock full of pullouts!

The low-sloped ceiling was given life with a curvaceous monorail lighting system, reflected by the Abbaka Arc hood. The rich cabinetry is African ribbon mahogany. Countertops blended concrete and stainless steel. Through the double doors is an outdoor kitchen. 

Landon's efforts were rewarded when his client's project received First Place honors in the Large Kitchen category of the 2006 Design Awards for the Puget Sound region of the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA). His peers then gave him their President's Award for the top design overall, honoring him as the "Best of the Best" and placing this project on the cover of Premier Media's regional "Kitchen & Bath" magazine!
