The Art of Hosting: Elena & Josh’s Custom Kitchen Island
Elena & Josh live a life full of love – for each other, shared between friends and family, devoted to their beautiful pups Piper and Otter, and many more.
Taking all of this passion into consideration, the Obra team designed, built and installed their Custom Kitchen Island. Compact, sophisticated, cozy and spacious: these are some of the words that can be used to describe their piece.
Simple Salsa Recipe
The Obra Elements Kitchen Island line was directly inspired by the essential role our island at Project Este plays in hosting, cooking, and solving real-life storage needs. Built using modules fine-tuned with the help of world-renowned chefs, we believe your island should elevate your daily rituals. We're sharing a few quick recipes to inspire your next special gathering around your own Obra Elements Kitchen Island.
