Kitchen · Seattle, WA
A contemporary Seattle kitchen with Dekton Laos countertops, a Lapitec island with an induction cooktop and a stone-wrapped hood.
Dekton and Lapitec are both sintered stones that need careful handling during delivery and install. The island holds an integrated induction cooktop, so cutouts and mounting had to be exact. The stone-wrapped hood and the Fenix cabinets needed to line up.
We used StoneEx digital laser templating to capture the space and plan the cuts. The island has mitered waterfall edges, and the hood is wrapped in stone. Seams were placed to stay out of sight near the sink and cooktop.
The Dekton counters, Lapitec island and drawer fronts and stone hood fit together with the Fenix cabinets. The kitchen is a sleek, usable space for everyday meals and entertaining.
The challenge in detail
This Seattle kitchen brings together two sintered stones, Dekton and Lapitec, and that mix called for detailed planning. Sintered stone needs care with its weight and its fragility in transport and installation. The design also asked for a seamless appearance, so alignment and cutting had to be precise from the start.
The layout added its own demands. The contemporary plan includes a large island with an integrated induction cooktop, which needed exact cutouts and secure mounting. The homeowners also wanted a stone-wrapped hood, one more element to fabricate and install. Finally, the stone had to work with the Fenix cabinets. The Dekton Laos countertops and the Lapitec drawer fronts needed to meet the cabinetry cleanly to keep the sleek, modern look intact.
How we approached it
Our team started with a StoneEx digital laser scan of the space. The scan gave accurate templates and measurements, which the complex layout and the coordination between the two materials depended on.
CNC cutting and edge work followed the digital template for both the Dekton Laos and the Lapitec. The mitered waterfall edges and the stone-wrapped hood were fabricated with close attention to detail so the joints came out clean. Seam placement was planned to keep joints as hard to see as possible, which supports the continuous look of the kitchen. We worked closely with the homeowners on how the stone meets the Fenix cabinets, so the finished room looks cohesive and contemporary.
The finished project
The finished kitchen pairs modern design with everyday function. Dekton countertops and a Lapitec island with its integrated induction cooktop turn the room into a sleek place to cook, with each material doing a clear job. The mitered waterfall edges on the island give its ends a clean, continuous line that matches the rest of the design.
The stone-wrapped hood is a strong focal point, and the Lapitec drawer fronts carry the stone into the cabinetry for a consistent, modern finish. Because the materials were planned together and installed with care, the surfaces read as one design rather than a set of separate parts. The kitchen now serves as a stylish, practical space for daily use and for entertaining guests.
