Abstract
A face/leaf structure can transform functions to selectively expand the usable area of a cabinet countertop or drawer without compromise to the cabinet's other functions. A drawer front is movably attached to a drawer to be either in a normal cosmetic vertical position or in a horizontal position cantilevered from the drawer. The structure may be arranged so that the leaf can be deployed with a single action. The leaf may rise to a same level as the countertop or selectively add exposed and usable horizontal space at a drawer front. Further the leaf can be pulled away from the main surface along with the drawer. This allows usable access to the drawer without stowing the leaf.
