Hand-crafted island countertop adds to sleek kitchen design

摘要

In designing the kitchen of their Baltimore, MD, residence, the homeowners sought the advice of Haim Amir of Milestone Granite & Marble, LLC. In addition to owning his own fabrication shop, Amir is also an accomplished artist and sculptor. As a result, he not only provided the homeowners with practical information to create a functional design, but also opened their imaginations and inspired them to think outside the box. The end product was a long, curved granite countertop island, which serves as the focal point of the space. According to Amir, he presented the Maryland couple with a set of ideas, and worked with them on the island design. "I showed them the templates, and they were very happy," he said. "Not everyone can open their minds and imagine."
