The kitchen includes multiple work areas, including a lower counter with space to roll under from either side or to use while sitting. The microwave is positioned so that it can be used easily from a seated position. Doors and lower paneling of the sink cabinet can be easily removed to provide knee space for a seated user. The cabinets have soft-close hardware and easy-to-grasp pulls. — Text by Michael Chotiner; Photographs by Chris Usher
