Today I finished spring cleaning in my kitchen so I thought I would share some photos of my space.
There are not many 'decorations' in this space but I think the design details we put into our kitchen eliminate the need for many accessories. However, there are still a few spots I am hoping to fill with the perfect accessory. The eight glass upper cabinets I am hoping to fill with unique ornaments about 6 - 9 inches in height that will be lit up with the cabinet lighting. I am also searching for the perfect art/ornament for the large blank space below the hood fan that will add a little dimension but not take away from the simplicity of this space.
I am loving our curved raised eating bar that comfortably seats six and allows for easy conversation. It also works well for serving meals buffet style when we have a crowd that overfills our dining nook.
A little change in depth in the cupboards along this wall add a little dimension to the cooking area. The hardwood is not actually this orange but is rather very blond with lots of great color variations. I am open to photography tips from anyone who has some to spare.
The stunning colors in this granite add so many details without adding clutter to the much needed counter space.
A little color variation in the backsplash tile compliments the granite without competing.
A sleek simple fixture adds a little glam without bringing too much attention to the sink area.

Hi. Can you please tell me the distance between the doors on your uppers (the size of the gap between the bottom of the top door to the top of the door below it)? I'm redoing my kitchen with stacked cabinets right now. Only the first set is up, and there seems to be a pretty big blank area (~1" of exposed cabinet frame that would normally be hidden by crown moulding) that I keep staring at. It's starting to look awkward to me. My contractor says it's nothing, but I think he's just trying to shut me up.
ReplyDeleteAlmost every single picture that I've seen on Houzz has all the doors very close together, just as close as they would be on a two door cabinet. Once in a while, I'll see a kitchen that has some trim between the two uppers which could be a way to break up the blank area. Hopefully I'm making sense. I can take a picture tomorrow (I'm on the west coast). Your kitchen is beautiful, and your designing skills are amazing. Dealing with the cabinet dimensions and making things work can be mind-numbing for me.
Love!! What color is on the walls?
ReplyDeletewhat is the name of the granite
ReplyDeleteLooks great! Love the wall color! What color did you use?
ReplyDeleteDo you know what the height of the sitting area is? How tall are the bar stools/chairs? Brand of the chairs? Looks awesome! Thanks
