The Best Kind of Kitchen
What would be your ideal kitchen? Something fancy and grand? Something quaint and cozy? Something simple and sleek?
Even more important than the appeal of the design is the feeling you get when living in your kitchen. It is the heart of the home, the most used room in the house, the warm place everyone tends to gather, no matter how small. If you think of it like that… a gathering room… then what becomes of the dream kitchen you imagine?
Take a look at House Beautiful’s slideshow of designer kitchens. Here are a few of my favorites…
Call me old fashioned. I am! But, I just love this mix of farmhouse and formal elements.
The size and beauty of this kitchen is cleverly extended with large, untrimmed archways. Simple and breathtaking elegance!
Small and casual kitchens are not to be thought fruitless of potential! What a fun idea to paint the cabinet interiors with a bright and cheery color! Such a delight should give one joy to be in the kitchen!
There are endless, fabulous solutions for every size kitchen and every size budget. What do you want to improve in your kitchen? Ask me! I’ll be more than happy to help with a free consultation!
New Project News!
One of my most exciting projects yet got underway today – a Victorian cupola renovation! It is a very small space, but will be so elegant once it is complete with its many custom features.
With a new spiral stair that ascends among built-in bookcases and a glass enclosed display case, one will walk up underneath the glass top of a coffee table before arriving at the cupola level. Through the new windows a peekaboo view of the Atlantic Ocean can be viewed while relaxing on the curved, custom-built cushioned seating in the cupola. A maple laptop desk will be custom-milled as well, following the curve of the seating and extending the flowing lines of the spiral into the space. This flow along with a glass railing and the previously mentioned glass tabletop help lend a more open feeling in the space. The vaulted ceiling will be finished with stained beadboard and illuminated with LED strip lighting behind a cove at the top perimeter of the walls.
Check out the plans at my Houzz website! I will be posting progress photos as it takes shape!
