dmhdecor What would you call the style this kitchen is done in? Does it have a classification? It feels traditional yet accessible and warm...brings the garden in - everything I love.

Floor Plan? - Hi, I think you were already asked this question but not sure if you replied privatley. I would love to see the floor plan if possible. We are currently designing our kitchen with our builder and cabinet guy. If would be great to see your floor plan if possible and look at the actually lengths of things. Your kitchen is beautiful. Thank you for sharing your pictures. They are inspirational. I also loved your reasoning for the window seat. Again, it is beautiful. Thanks. Respectfully, Robertsicc@yahoo.com »
