"East meets West" as a couple acquire their dream kitchen for this Vancouver home. A space that preserves the West Coast architecture and Chinese-Canadian heritage of the home was achieved through the use of simple, spare lines, aggregate flooring and plenty of natural light, which combine to create an unmistakable West Coast flavour.
  The kitchen window overlooks a fountain that spills into the backyard koi pond. Custom stainless steel hood and backsplash, a commercial style rangetop, wok and warming drawer give a professional look to the room. The slate countertops and backsplash will acquire a mildly distressed patina with time.
