The homeowners wanted to open up their living and kitchen area to create a more open plan. We relocated doors and tore open a wall to make that happen. New cabinetry and floors where installed and the ceiling and fireplace where painted. This home now functions the way it should for this young family!

Boho Bungalow Kitchen

Nicolette Jarquin, CKD

The island was designed to feel like furniture in this compact, narrow space. 2 stools for enjoying a coffee while looking out the sink window. Upper cabinets and wall paint were done in a creamy white paint to lighten the space. Rustic wood cabinets create texture and a connection to nature. Craftsman hardware and a black hood modernize this bungalow while natural colored ceramics like the backsplash tile and pendant lights bring the boho vibe. Adornments are all plants in this Biophilic design.

Download our free ebook, Creating the Ideal Kitchen. DOWNLOAD NOW This family from Wheaton was ready to remodel their kitchen, dining room and powder room. The project didn’t call for any structural or space planning changes but the makeover still had a massive impact on their home. The homeowners wanted to change their dated 1990’s brown speckled granite and light maple kitchen. They liked the welcoming feeling they got from the wood and warm tones in their current kitchen, but this style clashed with their vision of a deVOL type kitchen, a London-based furniture company. Their inspiration came from the country homes of the UK that mix the warmth of traditional detail with clean lines and modern updates. To create their vision, we started with all new framed cabinets with a modified overlay painted in beautiful, understated colors. Our clients were adamant about “no white cabinets.” Instead we used an oyster color for the perimeter and a custom color match to a specific shade of green chosen by the homeowner. The use of a simple color pallet reduces the visual noise and allows the space to feel open and welcoming. We also painted the trim above the cabinets the same color to make the cabinets look taller. The room trim was painted a bright clean white to match the ceiling. In true English fashion our clients are not coffee drinkers, but they LOVE tea. We created a tea station for them where they can prepare and serve tea. We added plenty of glass to showcase their tea mugs and adapted the cabinetry below to accommodate storage for their tea items. Function is also key for the English kitchen and the homeowners. They requested a deep farmhouse sink and a cabinet devoted to their heavy mixer because they bake a lot. We then got rid of the stovetop on the island and wall oven and replaced both of them with a range located against the far wall. This gives them plenty of space on the island to roll out dough and prepare any number of baked goods. We then removed the bifold pantry doors and created custom built-ins with plenty of usable storage for all their cooking and baking needs. The client wanted a big change to the dining room but still wanted to use their own furniture and rug. We installed a toile-like wallpaper on the top half of the room and supported it with white wainscot paneling. We also changed out the light fixture, showing us once again that small changes can have a big impact. As the final touch, we also re-did the powder room to be in line with the rest of the first floor. We had the new vanity painted in the same oyster color as the kitchen cabinets and then covered the walls in a whimsical patterned wallpaper. Although the homeowners like subtle neutral colors they were willing to go a bit bold in the powder room for something unexpected. For more design inspiration go to: www.kitchenstudio-ge.com

Farmhouse Kitchen Ideas

Clean and functional, yet homey and comforting, a farmhouse style kitchen offers the perfect spot to entertain and spend time with family. Typically featuring lots of crisp white, woods and rustic accents, farmhouse kitchen decor offers a happy alternative to contemporary or traditional looks. And while it’s gained increasing popularity over the past few years, fundamentally, it takes inspiration from utilitarian American farmhouses of the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, as well as old English country homes. While you browse through the photos below, consider the following 12 farmhouse kitchen ideas to incorporate in your home.

1. Old-Fashioned Appliances: To start out decorating your modern farmhouse kitchen, choose old-fashioned appliances that will anchor the look, like a retro fridge or an English style cast iron range.

2. Apron Sink: Another classic feature of a country kitchen is an apron style farmhouse kitchen sink. Often made of white ceramic, these sinks are visible from the front and remain visually distinct from the cabinetry. They’re great for draping a dish towel over.

3. Wooden Table: For a farmhouse kitchen island with plenty of character, simply arrange a wooden table in the center of the kitchen. Mismatched and repurposed furniture pieces are a hallmark of the look, and using a rustic table for extra counter space will give your kitchen a homey touch.

4. Butcher Block: Butcher block countertops fit perfectly with farmhouse design and will keep your kitchen looking simple yet refined.

5. Colorful Tile: While stone or wooden floors can look great, you can also go with colorful mosaic tile. This will help your kitchen feel truly distinctive, and the color and pattern choices are endless.

6. Shaker Style Cabinets: If you’re wondering what farmhouse kitchen cabinets might look like, think shaker style. This simple cabinet style, originally made by early Shaker communities, is perfect for a farm country kitchen.

7. Chalkboards: Chalkboards are both fun and functional, and are great spots for posting recipes, grocery lists or reminders for your family.

8. Farmhouse Kitchen Canisters: Whether you’ve got open shelving or not, a great way to keep the rustic look going is to store dry goods in glass canisters. Mason jars work well and you can even label them to be extra organized.

9. A Distinctive Backsplash: If you’re looking for farmhouse backsplash ideas, there are a few styles you could go with. Mosaic tile can work well and you can even feature a country motif like a rooster. Brick or subway tile are also great choices.

10. Black and White: Farm style kitchens typically feature lots of white balanced by industrial black accents. So if you’re looking for farmhouse cabinet hardware, consider going with black cup pulls or bar pulls.

11. Warming Rug: To keep the space from feeling too austere, you might add in colorful accents, like a blue or red rug. Choose a variety that can be washed and enjoy the extra padding underfoot while you cook.

12. Lighting to Set the Mood: There are a number of options when it comes to farmhouse kitchen lighting. For a more modern look, go with clear glass spheres. For a more traditional look, install metal lantern style pendants.
