Kitchen Ideas

While not these colors, like the mix of color with wood -- though I think I'd prefer a dark banding on the drawer and door fronts instead of the light.

Q

Another example of using color and wood front cabinets.

Q

What I like about this is the wood banding on the laminate fronts. I just think I'd like a darker banding.

Q

Cabinets from Kerf Design here in Seattle. What I don't like are the exposed plywood edges. If those edges were banded in a dark wood I'd like the look much better. Also like that there are some wood front cabinets as well.

Q

This and the next two pictures show a mix of laminate and wood, which I think I like.

Q

For the pantry doors and/or as in his picture, behind the cooktop. The work is by Uta Nagel, located in Vancouver, BC.

Q

Too much going on here, but I like the use of something other than traditional cabinet fronts.

Q

Really lovely wood cabinets. Just not the style I'm looking for. BUT, do like the idea of no need for handles/pulls.

Q

Very cool kitchen! Probably not for a mid-century bungalow, however. Dracula's castle, maybe!

Q

Saved because I liked the asymmetrical doors. Not sure that's really practical, but interesting nonetheless.

Q

Not that I'd want this, but thought this was an example of something both clever and creative. The cabinets are made of OSB painted with a high gloss paint.

Q

These next images are from your Instagram. I like the different colors on the wood -- just not a fan of oak.

Q

Saved this from your IG because of the idea of an image going across more than one cabinet (though I do realize this is a bar!).

Q

Same here: a colorful image that would span more than one cabinet.

Q

And yet more from your IG. Probably not practical to do cabinet doors like this, but these certainly are wonderful!

Q

Like the seamless look here -- all the cabinets mesh together visually instead of each looking separate. Probably means integral handles/pulls?

Q

Like these cabinets and the seamless look.

Q

A bit "blah," but I like the slab front doors on frameless cabinets,

Q

A similar look to the all black, but with a couple of colors. Not sure that I like this, but at least it's not the same old/same old!

Q

Not kitchen, but love this front door! Maybe the same design could become a cabinet door?!

Q

This is too much! But with a bit more restraint, I do like the dark line between the cabinet doors -- even though saying that is the opposite of other comments about a "seamless look"!

Q

Interesting cabinet style. That's the only reason for saving this picture!

Q

Generally not a fan of oak (mostly because I don't like the grain), but this white oak is nice.

Q

Not sure I'd really want to do this, but it's a neat touch in the right space.

Q

Love this mosaic. Too much for the kitchen -- I think it would overwhelm, but still ...

Q

While this is a magazine cover, saved for the colors!

Q

Aboriginal dot painting (Dorothy Napangardi). If a design like this ran across several cabinets, that could look cool.

Q

And yet another Aboriginal dot painting. What about something like this all across the cabinetry on the kitchen wall? (Betty Kuntiwa Pumani is the artist)

Q

Another Aboriginal dot painting

Q

This and the next 9 images are all from the HenryBuilt portfolio. Most are a nice mix of wood and laminate. All their cabinets use Tandemboxes

Q

Like the "streak of black" in this, but not that they installed the oven so low -- I assume so it would not break up the symmetry of the cabinets. But still, the kitchen has to be functional!

Q

Like the look but not the upkeep of open shelving. Still this is a nice kitchen.
