The one-room schoolhouse, which would not traditionally have a kitchen, created a design challenge. The most natural solution was to utilize the entire back wall of the open room using unfitted, furniture style cabinets which have the appearance of being collected and assembled over time. To reflect the symmetrical layout of the double entries, a single door in the centre was replaced by a door at each end of the wall. A more efficient galley-style workspace was made with the counters between the doors and the addition of a large central island.
