Growing and enjoying their own food means this kitchen is used all day long. Its spacious custom blue painted island with quartz countertop from Mont Surfaces in “Nobility” is the perfect place for cleaning just picked produce. The professional dual fuel range from Thermador offers cooking capacity for multiple dishes at once. Perimeter cabinets from Grabill Cabinets in their Olde Towne door style and Glacier paint finish offer ample storage for kitchen tools.

Kitchen Is Where the Hearth Is Location: Edina, MN, USA With her only daughter off to college, this busy executive decided it was time to remodel her kitchen to suit her love for baking, cooking and hosting holidays for her large family. The homeowner’s wish list included white cabinetry, an island, plenty of storage, a gas insert for the fireplace and a special place for her collection of teacups. The fireplace and the large bank of windows in the existing footprint were a challenge to designing a cohesive plan. But by moving the doorway to the mudroom closer to the sink wall, a dedicated cooking zone was created for the convection oven, steam oven and a gas rangetop. This wall became the anchor for the island, topped with Carrara marble, an ideal surface for rolling out pie dough and making cookies. Blue, the homeowner’s favorite color was chosen for the island color with a black glaze to give it warmth. It sets off the marble and coordinates with the soapstone on the perimeter, a low maintenance option. The whimsical island stools from Hickory Chair invite friends to stay a while. The wood-burning fireplace was replaced with gas to make it more useable and the brick was covered with a marble slab to create a clean, transitional feel. The paneled accent wall detail uses the same inside step profile of the cabinetry doors and is painted in Benjamin Moore Coventry Gray to match the walls but with a slightly higher sheen. It separates the kitchen dining space from the kitchen work area giving it a feeling of friendly formality. The hutch adds more kitchen storage and shows off the homeowner’s collection of colorful teacups with a contrasting painted interior in Benjamin Moore Yarmouth Blue. The Urban Electric black lantern over the kitchen table also has a painted interior of Yarmouth Blue. This dining space with fun bits of drama ties in with the swooping white hood and Carrara marble wall tiles on the opposite side of the kitchen space. The result is an organized cook’s kitchen that transitions gracefully to entertaining. Liz Schupanitz Designs Photographed by: Andrea Rugg

Photo by Peter Rymwid This kitchen pulls it's beauty from the perfect combination of whites, blues, and greys. Glass mullion doors to the right of the windows and smokey mirror on the refrigerator panels help to add the illusion of a more open space. We left the room as an open space to allow more room to entertain, eat, and cook. The ceramic tile mimics wood planking perfectly but makes cleaning and maintenance easier. The tall hearth makes for a more spacious cooking area on a smaller wall. Cabinet and top details: The perimeter tops are Silestone Haze, the island top is Danby marble at 2 1/2" thick. The perimeter cabinets are frameless with applied molding and painted white, the island is maple with a denim stain. The ceiling height is 8'. all the lighting, furniture, and wall paint colors and wallpaper were handled by the home owner - we have no information on file.

This gem shows how stunning a custom paint color can be! With gorgeous garden views, we wanted to reflect the outdoors in the kitchen, and the homeowners loved green, so we chose Benjamin Moore Cushing Green for the perimeter cabinets, which tie in beautifully to the natural stone slab at the island, and pair perfectly with the Lunada Bay mosaic tile backsplash. Tons of natural light, vaulted ceilings with skylights, and an open layout make for a delightful place to cook!
