The kitchen cabinets were built with the house's original ship-lap wall sheathing that we removed from the walls when reconfiguring the space and updating the sheetrock. The main countertops are white Corian solid surface and the island was made from solid beech butcher block.

  Free ebook, Creating the Ideal Kitchen. DOWNLOAD NOW   This kitchen was part of a major house renovation including a family room and master bath addition. The new kitchen, located roughly in the same position as the original kitchen, was expanded in size to accommodate a large island for this growing family of four. The homeowner's goal was to stay true to the home's 1920's bungalow style. This was accomplished by the selection of white shaker style inset cabinetry, along with a mix of soapstone counter tops and a stunning piece of white calacutta marble that tops the large island. Architectural details including a wood topped hutch and a shelf over the windows were included to display the homeowner's collection of antique pottery and help complete the vintage feel. Professional grade appliances keep the kitchen working hard for this growing family.

This contemporary kitchen has loft feel with black cabinets, a concrete counter top on the kitchen island, stainless steel fixtures, corrugated steel ceiling panels, and a glass garage door opening to the back yard. Photo and copyright by Renovation Design Group. All rights reserved.

Arched valances above the window and on the island bookshelf, along with the curved custom metal hood above the stainless steel range, contrast nicely with the overall linear design of the space. The leaded glass cabinet doors not only create a spot to display the homeowner’s favorite glassware, but visually it helps prevent the white cabinets from being overbearing. By installing recessed can lights uniformly throughout the space instead of decorative pendants above the island, the kitchen appears more open and spacious.

This kitchen proves small East sac bungalows can have high function and all the storage of a larger kitchen. A large peninsula overlooks the dining and living room for an open concept. A lower countertop areas gives prep surface for baking and use of small appliances. Geometric hexite tiles by fireclay are finished with pale blue grout, which complements the upper cabinets. The same hexite pattern was recreated by a local artist on the refrigerator panes. A textured striped linen fabric by Ralph Lauren was selected for the interior clerestory windows of the wall cabinets.

Floors: European Oak that is wired brushed. The company is Provenza, Pompeii collection and the color is Amiata. Distressed wood: The wood is cedar that's been treated to look distressed! My client is brilliant , so he did some googling (is that a word?) and came across several sites that had a recipe to do just that. He put a steel wool pad into a jar of vinegar and let it sit for a bit. In another jar, he mixed black tea with water. Brush the tea on first and let it dry. Then brush on the steel wool/vinegar (don't forget to strain the wool). Voila, the wood turns dark. Andrew McKinney Photography

By shifting the location of the office door, we were able to recoup much need space for the kitchen and extend the sink counter to stretch the entire length of the wall. White inset cabinets along with white appliances reflect light and create a cheery atmosphere. Smooth green wall paint and red granite add personality and excitement.
