A kitchen area, with central island, blond cabinets, white walls, a green palm tree and dark gray carpeting, dark gray countertop. Overhead, a florescent light fixture, under the cabinet, an incandescent light shines down on a cooking surface. A built-in wall oven on the right, a refrigerator with water and ice dispenser, and two dark wood Early American type side chairs are also in the picture.Photo 2: The perennial problem: how to hide the accessible disposal beneath the accessible sink.

A garbage disposal unit is visible below the sink; a dishwasher is to the left of the sink, and blond wood drawers are below the built-in oven. A straw basket of yellow bananas sits on the island countertop.Photo 3: These shelves, they go up and down at the touch of a button.

He wears blue jeans and a white turtle neck shirt, sleeves pushed up to the elbow.Photo 4: The same man, still smiling, leans into a front-loading washer with a dark green garment in his hand.

Three faucets, an adjustable bar for the shower plumbing, and a stainless steel flooring are in the shower. The floor space is apparently much larger than a standard shower stall, possibly 6' X 6'.
