Before and After: Terracotta Kitchen Renovation

11 years ago
last modified: 11 years ago

When Shari bought her adorable 1959 Cape Cod home after moving from the south of France, she knew she wanted to make some changes to make the kitchen her own.

Although the original kitchen had character and charm of a 50s home–it had grown outdated, and Shari wanted to create a space similar to the terracotta style she enjoyed while living in France.

To see the whole project, check out the blog post at http://renovation1500.com/terracotta-kitchen-renovation/

    The blue looks very, very pretty with the terra cotta flooring. Nice work.

    I love blue in a kitchen and have used it in several projects to good effect. In this kitchen I would rather the uppers were white.

    Shari, what a lovely job! I also have a 1950's cape cod home and understand the kitchen limitations and space constraints. Really beautiful renovation and I hope you are loving it.

    Love the blue and terracotta combination. I foresee some beautiful wall tiles in the future backsplash.

    That's a great color combination. It's very refreshing in a sea of neutral kitchens out there. I never would have thought to use that color scheme, but it looks beautiful.

    Blue can be polarizing color, but she really nailed it!
