This formidable kitchen of a Spanish mission-style home serves up many Cheng signature features: a Cheng custom-plastered hood with built-in utensil rod and custom steel shelving, custom bamboo cabinetry, and a prep-island that supports a large three-inch thick mahogany food prep table cantilevered over a sculptural, freestanding terracotta-toned concrete pedestal with integral sink. The conical-shaped unit houses a container for compost, a garbage bin and a disposal. Directly below the mahogany top, a cast-iron steel grate forms a low platform for storage just above the floor.
