Here are black pulls I’ve changed some out with.

Time to change the 60’s design. Even covered in tile, that wood is gonna be scorched underneath on that oven panel. Gut and redo.

I think this seemingly simple query will prove a tough one. Flat slab doors were made possible by the creation of plywood, which was not available during the craftsman era. So, so long as those doors remain, you will be fighting. I think your options are: (a) cut your losses, stop investing in this and start saving to change the doors (b) hire a faux-finish painter to paint the doors a pale-to-medium brown with a faux wood grain on them. (And the pulls don’t help. They are very mid-century in their shape. Look at some craftsman kitchens. The pulls should be more handcrafted, like hammered metal, I’d think.)

Kitchen is a redo since home was built. Cabinets were originally custom built maple, but turned too orange. I will look into changing style of pulls. Thanks for advice!

Sorry. We had an ultra mod kitchen in a previous house. I actually came to love it. Just embrace the style, for now. It's lovely- even if it's not your taste.

Please switch back the pulls. The black ones do not look good, I am sorry, but the current ones look better.

Your kitchen is what many on this forum would be happy, even thrilled, to have. It is though far from a craftsman style, and no touches you might do will make it Craftsman. I would just let that aspiration go. A gut and reno may create a Craftsman style, but what about the rest of your house? Is it Craftsman too?

Craftsman-style kitchens:

The slab cabinets are not craftsman style and nothing you add will change that unfortunately. I love the color you chose for the cabinets and agree with others that the stainless hardware looked better. Unless you can and want to get new cabinets I'd just accept that the kitchen isn't craftsman.

Keep saving to fix the fire hazard.

Sophie, can you clarify what the fire hazard is in this design? Thanks.

Sophie, I see it now. I thought you meant something related to the oven. Bad placement of cooktop.

Though you tiled the wall next to the cooktop, which is good.

Covering combustible surfaces with tile won’t stop the heat transfer to the wood underneath, which will scorch. Scorching is the first stage of combustion. It clearly violates clearances.

Agreed Sophie. But we've looked with horror on this forum at the kitchens with cooktops up against drywall or wood directly, with the homeowner oblivious, so at least the tile provides a first layer.

ETA: how is a tiled wall on the side of the cooktop any different from the tiled backsplashes behind the cooktop? The tiled backsplash behind the cooktop is pretty universal.

You technically need a non combustible material behind the tile in many (all?) instances. But I bet nearly no one knows or does that.

Slab cabinets are themselves modern/contemporary. Shakers would have been a more versatile choice.

I think fighting the contemporary look will just make it look even further out of place. Until you are ready to redo cabinets, embrace the look. I also agree the original pulls looked better than the black, which look too dark on the already darker cabinets.

I had a wall of kitchen tile buckle and come off from the heat of a fireplace on the opposite side of the wall.

You can add trim to make the flat doors look like Shaker, but the better time to do it would have been before the cabinets were painted. Also soapstone, or a soapstone-look laminate would look more like Craftsman.
