Great ideas about appliance garages!
this might work if we need to keep aa beam btw K and LVR.
yellow bottom cabs??!!
whitewash turns pinkish on pine or other light woods.
stained wood cabs
Giant skylight
Take out the ceiling and add windows
this K has a nice feel. White and wood with bronze. Big windows.
light fixture
Interesting idea to have a roll-out prep surface.
This island is 42" from opp counter
Curves are good
The walls are tile counter to ceiling. This is good if there are available walls.
This banquet is a movable piece of furniture
Modern, farmy, alcove stove
gold paint like Monet's kitchen.
Free-standing island gives farmhouse feel, open at bottom for spaciousness. Doesnt need to be antiquey.
unadorned alcove stove front
taupe tile with white
Island leg style and wide light flooring. The rug under the dining area isn't big enough. Wood floor and wood ceiling might be too much wood. clay floor or paint the ceiling?
White counters keep the kitchen light.
White and wood with oversized knobs.
Beams are recessed. Painted shiplap ceiling is very homey. Yellow wallls are sunny.
Island is farmhouse, but minimal.
The island top overhangs the bottom and has legs. We'd have to have shorter legs to allow for storage. All the cabs have little legs. Modern farmhouse. Schoolhouse lights.
Orientation of island to stove with mostly lower cabinets matches our idea.
Arch is way too low.
arched alcove with shelf
Use corbel corner to create arch
Most of their food prep is done in the middle? Cool idea so wouldn't need to have so much counter space?
This is Ballard Designs' new electric version of an antique French gaslight. It really is stunning in person. If you want to give your room instant weight and an old-world feel, this is my recommendation.
Too many light fixtures!!
Black walnut w soapstone counters
Knotty hickory for farmhouse feel
Crown moulding w white cabs.
Same alcove.
Alcove stove style that would work with strawbale. No bricks needed.


good storage ideas
