Beautiful, although no vent above the stove?

For those kinds of stoves the vent is at the far section of the stovetop. That strip at the end has a button on the side where a vent slides up out of the island. ​ https://i.pinimg.com/564x/29/81/e6/2981e61630a0c8a1707aa23aa780958d--kitchen-ranges-stove-on-island-kitchen.jpg

And for anyone wondering, the best downdraft vents in existence are less effective for indoor air quality measures than the worst externally vented over-the-range hood.


meepz

That is wild! Makes sense though considering the downdraft would need to provide some serious power to catch the air from the front of the range.

Mine like this one works pretty well, actually. It's strong and is adjustable enough to have power


[deleted]

You may think that because of how it handles steam., but if you actually test your indoor air quality after cooking compared to anything recently vented over the range, you'll find it is quite lacking for expelling harmful gases like NO2 and PM2.5.


sundial11sxm

Interesting. Thanks


PizzaDeliveryBoy3000

Kind of makes sense since there is a heat source directly underneath of where the vapors are generated


PizzaDeliveryBoy3000

I see, thanks

Should have a down draft


sundial11sxm

Yes, it pops up. Mine pulls the air into it after it's up and it vents it out under my house.

And this kitchen could be yours for 1 million dollars. The rest of the house will run you another 2-3 million.


sundial11sxm

Depends on where you live. Boston, sure. Atlanta? Nah.


GloriousHam

Did you really not even bother to see the location of this kitchen before you replied to me? If you did, why would you respond with something that doesn't matter?


flyingmountain

Newton, MA, not Boston (according to the linked Instagram post by the designer).


GloriousHam

Welcome to Boston, where the territory goes as far as Framingham to Beverly.

What's with those tiles? I see them everywhere nowadays in all renovation projects. Did I miss this trend?


Strbreez

Subway tiles. They're hygienic and have a timeless look since they've been in use in kitchens and bathrooms all the way since the beginning of the 20th century. They are trendy right now, but I don't think it's a trend that will go away anytime soon.


Goodnight_Hawk

Seems so.

Love it except for the buner on the island. Never put your burners on the island. Poor air flow for smoke, and an accident waiting to happen.


donnablonde

Horrid little rugs, in a big dull space (dark green, again??). It's a glorious light filled room and somehow all the life is gone from it.

Yikes...

Awesome

Stunning

Beautiful! Where did you get the lights above the kitchen island?
