American Dream Design Build of Puyallup, Washington was recently awarded "Design Excellence" in the details/finishes/trades category at the REX (Remodelling Excellence) Awards which was presented throught the Pierce County Master Builders Association and the Remodelers™ Council. Each year, these two associations honor the best remodelers in Pierce County and Washington State. Candidates are judged on quality, material, design, creativity and workmanship. The awards see a variety of entrants compete in various categories.
As a long-standing and reputable design and building firm, American Dream Design Build certainly had the credentials to design and complete a project that was worthy of a REX award. So when one of their customers approached them and requested a custom kitchen island, they were certainly up for the challenge. The customer had limited kitchen space, so the kitchen island had to maximize in its ability to function. Ultimately, the island was designed to be mobile and was intended to be pushed off to the side of the kitchen when not in use. That said, the idea was to make the island function as a beautiful piece of furniture - not just as an island.
So when selecting a countertop material for the kitchen island, what was the immediate choice? DuPont™ Corian®. Basil - the color that was selected - is a part of the DuPont™ Corian® Private Collection of colors which means it offers unique veining and patterns all while being an extremely durable, functional material. Additionally, to avoid issues with the island tipping over, Corian® was also selected due to it being a lightweight material. With the help of FLOFORM Countertops who assisted with the Corian® fabrication, the end result was a beautiful kitchen island with a few unexpected and quirky features - including drop leafs on the back side of the countertop and a heavy-duty mixer lift that was hidden in a full-height cabinet.
