help me design this kitchen + living room

20 days ago

I am tearing out this kitchen and redoing it. The kitchen is small, and is connected to the living room, it’s all very open. I need design input please!!! Here are the parameters:

  • I don’t want to be mindful of resale, because we may not be in this house for a long time. So I don’t want to do things like get a colorful emerald green range.
  • I naturally decorate with juicy greens (not muted) and layered warm white, and I like artistic pinks, Tiffany blue and red.
  • the floor will be refinished to a darker walnut
  • I like forno appliances, but not married to that
  • I have a white farmhouse sink
  • I like unlaquered brass
  • I have a 48 in tall hoodsley range hood with brass strapping, primed to be painted.
  • I want the space to feel eclectic, artistic, but also elegant. Like a boutique hotel in Charleston SC.
  • I originally was going to do the kitchen in a lot of white. But I’m concerned about how it will transition to the living room, because I do love color and the crave green!
  • I and looking for design ideas for both rooms, to visualize how it would all work together.
  • I don’t want it to feel too monochromatic, and I don’t want it to feel like a beach house! I have an idea eclectic art collection, old paintings and lots of books. So I want these two rooms to create an artistic environment that feels elegant.
  • I like the idea of green milk glass light fixtures
  • the house is a Charlestonian style with double front porches

Thank you for your help!!
