Introducing the Prairie Line!

Monday, October 24th, 2011
Prairie Main Shot

Fantastic install of the new Prairie Line from Crown Point Cabinetry.

In homage to master architect Frank Lloyd Wright and the Prairie movement, Crown Point Cabinetry is proud to introduce our new Prairie Line!   Our approach to Prairie styling is historically correct yet decidedly unique with innovative design elements that bring custom cabinetry to a whole new level.

This kitchen is the perfect complement to a newly constructed Frank Lloyd Wright inspired home in Central New York.

Range Shot

Strong lines, cantilevered projections and terraced surfaces. All details inspired by the exterior of this Frank Lloyd Wright inspired home.

Our design staff worked directly with the homeowner and architect to utilize many of the signature design elements found in the home.  Horizontal and vertical lines, dramatic brackets and posts are repeated throughout the kitchen.

Island detail

An example of borrowing design details from the architecture of the home can be found in the island brackets.  They were designed to perfectly mimic the cantilevered second floor terrace.

Square Channel Detail Shot

Crown Point's design patented square channel face frames.

Our patented channel face frame is a foundational element that adds a level of lineal detail and visual interest to the entire kitchen.  To achieve this look, we apply inlays made of the same wood species (in this case, Sapele) which intersect to create a distinct square detail.

Bar Shot

This stunning project features the Highland Park and Ellsworth Door styles.

An adjoining bar area features upper cabinetry with our Highland Park door and clear leaded glass.  Lower cabinetry features the Ellsworth door (design patent pending) with its solid wood panel and wood muntins.  Doors within this line are customizable as homeowners can choose from multiple specialty glass options.

Linea System

The Linea shelving system offers a customizable way to keep your necessities at easy reach.

Another show stopping detail is our Linea Shelving System.  A customizable panel can be installed as a partial or full backsplash, or as is shown here at the end of the island.  Homeowners can choose from a number of useful elements such as clear acrylic, aluminum or wooden shelves, as well as various hooks.  Wall shelf boxes, as shown above in matching Sapele, allow you to conveniently transport your essentials from shelf to counter and back again.

More photos of this stunning Prairie Style kitchen may be found in our Gallery, album number 70!

 

Remodeling Show Wrap Up!

Remodeling Show

Crown Point Designers Vanessa Perry and Bob Davis work our 20ft booth at the Remodeling Show

We’re back from a whirlwind trip to the Remodeling Show in Chicago, IL. There was great energy at the show, and we had an impressive turn out at our booth!

We had a chance to catch up with familiar faces such as Chris Wright from WrightWorks and Dimitri Nassis from Tandem Construction.  We were very happy to make new connections with quality remodelers, builders, architects and designers from IL, MN, NJ, OH, IN, MD just to name a few of the states we saw represented!

Metro Classic Display

A new classic line of cabinetry, featuring chrome accents, was a big hit at the Remodeling Show!

 

While at the show, we introduced a classic line of cabinetry featuring chrome accents.  We were delighted to hear the word “wow!” over and over, as attendees really were drawn to the “furniture jewelry!”

 

Remodeling Show close up

Here's a close up of the chrome accents.

We enjoyed our time in Chicago and made some new friends.  Did you attend the show?  If so, what were your impressions of the show and what did you think of our new display?  Leave us a comment and let us know!
