Anne Sage's Lake Tahoe Kitchen Uses Dacor 'Invisible Kitchen' Appliances

California designer Anne Sage renovated her own kitchen near Lake Tahoe, California, using Dacor appliances to address a railroad-style footprint and a desire for a warm, clean, modern space. The project, published by Azure Magazine on behalf of Dacor, centered on the brand's 'Invisible Kitchen' design philosophy, which prioritizes performance while preserving a room's beauty and flow. Sage hid the refrigerator, freezer, and dishwasher behind oak panels, and used inset panels and raised drawer handles flush with the counter. A 36-Inch Column Refrigerator integrated with clean-lined cabinetry, while a 30-Inch Microwave-In-A-Drawer tucked into the kitchen island and a 36-Inch Gas Cooktop with five burners anchored its center. The home's mountain locale inspired a palette of blonde wood and off-white stone that complements an exposed, white-painted beam-and-plank ceiling. Sage, a working mother who cooks most meals from scratch, praised the fridge and freezer's spacious, easy-to-clean compartments, the cooktop's speed, and the dishwasher's sparkling results. She said Dacor was the only brand that checked all her boxes, citing customizable appliances that met both her design vision and dimensional requirements without sacrificing style or function.
