It is often said that the kitchen is the heart of a home. Even if you aren’t cooking, it seems to be a gathering place for easy conversation and lots of laughter. Having an open concept living space is a great starting point where friends and family can drift in and out of the kitchen, stopping for a while at the bar area or kitchen island, or picking up a cool drink from the fridge. From gourmet chefs who like to create culinary masterpieces to those who venture into their recipe books only occasionally, every homeowner and food lover appreciates a high-end kitchen. An inviting space that is simultaneously comforting to be around, a stylish entertaining space, and functional. Kitchens at The Parklane deliver in all areas with a choice of finishes on the countertops and Eggersmann cabinets, top-quality Bosch appliances, plenty of space to gather, and floor plans that integrate the kitchen with the rest of the main living areas. We take a closer look at the heart of a high-rise home at The Parklane.

Eggersmann USA Cabinets

Famed for their exquisite design with luxurious finishes including soft-closing cabinets, soft-closing drawers, and under-cabinet lighting, delivering stylish and highly functional storage solutions, homebuyers can select from 4 packages that offer different color palettes which, for the kitchen, are as diverse as a subtle shade of whitewashed ash which acts as a perfect counterpoint to sandy grey solid hardwood flooring in the Urban Elegance package to the natural oak tones in the Dynamically Bold package.
The Classic Tempo package pairs sleek light latte-colored Eggersmann cabinets in a shade known as ‘Vienna grey brown’ with ‘dekton arga’ kitchen counters, featuring brown-gold veining and a thoroughly contemporary aesthetic taking centuries-old inspiration from the quartzite in the Taj Mahal.

The Rustic Chic design package pairs weathered grey oak Eggersmann cabinets with dramatic ‘dekton korso’ countertops – a rich, highly polished chocolate-colored stone with grey veining, conjuring a striking ambiance and instant warmth.

Kitchen Appliances by Bosch

Quality, convenience, reliability, and sleek lines can be found in the kitchens at The Parklane, with Bosch appliances throughout and upgraded Thermador appliances in the penthouses.

The microwave units throughout most of the 1-3 bedroom condominium homes are the 24-inch 800 Series Drawer Microwave, which acts as a 2-in-1 microwave and convection oven, with 950 watts of microwave cooking power and SpeedChef™ cooking cycles to expedite cook times.

The penthouse microwaves are 30-Inch built-In Microwaves with spacious 1.6 cu.ft. interiors, also with 950 watts of microwave power.

24-inch 800 Series Custom Panel Dishwashers offer a 24h delay start timer so the dishwasher can be operated at off-peak times or when the home is quiet or empty. A 3rd rack adds versatility and offers 30% more loading capacity when compared to a standard Bosch dishwasher with two racks.

Now things get exciting! 30-36 inch induction cooktops revolutionize cooking on a daily basis with a fundamental shift from transferring heat through the cooker rings to heating the pans directly using electromagnetic energy. Cooking food more quickly, the ability to precisely control temperature, improved energy efficiency, cooling down rapidly after cooking, improved kitchen safety, and easy cleanup await.

30-inch ovens make baking a pleasure while the Thermador appliances in the penthouses feature this stunning 36-inch 500 Series Pull-Out Hood which reduces noise up to 50% (compared to without it), being equipped with the Thermador Connected Experience by Home
Connect, where Thermador kitchen appliances can be controlled through an app on your smartphone.

Bosch refrigerator/freezers round out the kitchen appliances, with the Thermador model in the penthouses featuring a French Door Bottom Freezer with uniquely shaped Diamond Ice made with twist tray technology – an instant ice-breaker at any cocktail party!

Open Concept Living

From taking in the spectacular park and Downtown views through the curved glass windows to stepping outside onto the private balcony while dinner is cooking, from fitting in a quick catch-up as you rustle up a sandwich, to visualizing an ambitious menu to impress friends and then watching as it all comes together, the kitchen in your home at The Parklane has been designed to make every day feel like a special occasion. Recessed LED lights, Moen kitchen faucets, spacious work surfaces, stunning finishes, high-end appliances, and seamless integration into the open concept floor plan make the heart of this home a pleasure to own.
