2 a progress shot from a kitchen in an 1880’s Baltimore home
3 organized shelves in a Lisbon, Portugal kitchen
4 These glass shelves might more commonly be used for a bathroom, but their light appearance and shallow storage work wonders in this kitchen.
5 Customized IKEA shelves go vertical in this application.

6 One more view of those glass shelves from the bottom shows off their transparency.
