Crystal Kitchen + Bath

The kitchen in this beautiful 1934 home had been renovated, but lacked flow and adequate storage and for the family of five. The Viking range was trapped in an alcove, with little counter space on the sides. By relocating the wall oven, the range wall is a functional area featuring two niches, an accessory rail and dramatic tile. The new grey-stained Crystal cabinets in hickory and cherry complement the existing Colorado stone floors. Careful selection of materials and placement blends existing and new, while respecting the vintage of the home.

A Traditional Kitchen with a Casual, Beachy Vibe

Amazing Spaces

Using white as the backdrop color, deep navy blue cabinetry is used on the island and echoes the accent color in the backsplash mosaic tile behind the hood. Glass inserts are strategically integrated into lighted cabinets, adding interest and illumination to the white wall cabinets. The soothing grey beadboard backsplash adds texture and speaks to the beachy aesthetic. To ensure a durable solution especially behind the sink, the bead board is installed above a 5” tall piece of quartz. Additional accent lighting inside the glass cabinets and below the wall cabinets adds ambient and task lighting. Modern rustic details include hammered shiny chrome hardware and floating reclaimed shelves. Photo: Peter Krupenye

UNA CUCINA DALLE DIMENSIONI GENEROSE

Polygona

É proprio la cucina,il cuore della vita familiare. Arredando la cucina dobbiamo prendere in considerazione i bisogni di tutti gli abitanti della casa. Per questa ragione è una delle più importanti decisioni da prendere durante la progettazione dello spazio abitativo. Il grande vantaggio della cucina con isola è sicuramente la presenza di un buon piano, sfruttabile sia per cucinare che per svolgere tutte le attività quotidiane. Un secondo grande vantaggio rappresentato proprio dall’elemento isola, è che permette di liberare tanto spazio a parete e creare ulteriore contenimento. L’abbinamento legno ed effetto marmo nero creano un ambiente molto elegante, caratterizzato da linee pulite e dettagli importanti come le colonne ad ante rientrante e la cantinetta vini. Una caratteristica principale di questo ambiente è sicuramente la linearità, la quale è stata ,mantenuta anche nella zona colonne con la creazione della dispensa utilizzando le stesse ante delle colonne. L’illuminazione a binario con pendenti,faretti e led danno un tocco di modernità ma allo stesso tempo essendo un illuminazione tecnica, è estramamente funzionale. Le pareti in vetro che dividono il soggiorno dalla cucina permettono di creare un ambiente open-space, ma allo stesso tempo di poterli isolare in caso di necessità. Ogni elemento ed abbinamento è stato attentamente studiato, per creare una cucina accogliente e funzionale.

Moderne weiße Küche in U-Form, grifflos

Markus Wolf – der Meister

In einem Neubau haben wir für unseren Kunden eine Küche in U-Form konzipiert, die zum Wohnraum hin offen ist. Abgegrenzt wird der Küchenbereich durch eine Theke. Das lichtdurchflutete Erdgeschoss ist weitgehend in hellen Farbtönen gehalten, so dass es sich angeboten hat eine weiße Küche zu gestalten. Die klare Architektursprache des Neubaus findet sich auch in der Linienführung der einzelnen Schrankelemente wieder. Damit die Fronten nicht unnötig unterbrochen werden, ist komplett auf Griffe verzichtet worden und stattdessen mit push-to-open gearbeitet worden. Der Dunstabzug ist in den Herd integriert, so dass auch keine störende Haube angebracht werden musste. Alles in allem ist es eine scheinbar völlig schlichte Küche, deren Stärke aber im Detail, der Ausstattung und im Zusammenwirken mit der Architektur liegt.

Beige Kitchen with Timber Splashback Design Ideas

There’s a lot to consider when it comes to planning your kitchen design. Where do you even start? Gathering some inspiration in a photo gallery is always a good starting point, as looking at different kitchen designs often brings up ideas you haven’t even thought of yet.

Browse Photos of Kitchen Designs for Inspiration and Collect Your Ideas

You can browse through photos of all kinds of kitchen styles, layouts and sizes on Houzz to get started before jumping into any design software or contacting a local professional for help. Here’s a few considerations to keep in mind when planning your kitchen.

1. What Makes a Good Kitchen Design, and Why is it Important?

For starters, you want to find a balance between aesthetics and function. You may have heard of the ‘kitchen work triangle’, which refers to the space between your fridge, sink and stove. You want everything within easy reach when you’re working in the kitchen and look beautiful at the same time. It’s a good idea to take note of both when browsing our photo gallery.

2. Consider Your Space to Determine Your Kitchen Layout

Firstly, consider the space you have, and the limitations that come with it. Do you have a small kitchen and need to maximise your workspace and storage? Can you allow yourself some more space and a big island with seating? Are you designing your kitchen from scratch or renovating an existing design? Which appliances do you already own and what are their measurements? Are there windows you need to take into consideration when planning cabinets? How do kitchen, living and dining areas connect? Depending on your space and needs, you want to use a shape that suits you. U, G, or L-shaped kitchen, with or without island or peninsula? Know your dimensions, plan cabinetry carefully and consider the placement of your appliances. You don’t want to end up with a finished design, only for your significant other to question where the fridge is supposed to go. Consider from the start where your fridge, oven, microwave and sink goes to save yourself from starting again from scratch - remember the kitchen work triangle! You also want to plan the layout of your cabinets. Maybe you’re planning for a pantry and can do with less storage space in your kitchen, so that your design can be one without upper or lower cabinets for a different look. A corner cabinet can be a smart storage solution if you want to keep the look clean and simple.

3. Decide on a Kitchen Style, But Don’t Forget Practicality

You want the style of your kitchen to reflect your personality and taste. We have curated a large array of kitchen styles here at Houzz, from traditional to contemporary to transitional and everything in between. Consider what your cooking style is for a start - Italy is known for its cuisine, so italian kitchen designs are generally popular. Also consider ergonomics - depending on how much time you spend in your kitchen, the height of your counters can make a big difference to your overall health. You also want to consider colour and finishes of cabinets, countertops and splashbacks. Which colour do you want your cupboards to be? Simple, timeless white or rather making a statement in black? Maybe rather a rustic wood? Also consider the colour of your floor - if you have dark floors, you may want to keep cabinets lighter. You could also go for an all-white look and choose black appliances for contrast. Once you know which style you fancy, don’t forget how you will be using the space. You want to keep cooking in mind, as well as how easy to clean and maintain the space will be. How many cooks do you need to accommodate? Do you have kids around? How much storage do you need? Maybe you want to go for open shelves rather than cabinets and allow for easy reach of key items you use when cooking. Again - remember the triangle! Lastly, choose lighting that both enhances the look of your kitchen as well as your cooking performance, providing light in all the right places.

4. Be Conscious of Your Budget

No matter what you plan for your kitchen design, cost is always a big factor. Be sure to plan with your budget in mind. It may make more sense to go for a modular kitchen design rather than custom build. You can save a lot of money if you get at least 3 estimates from professionals before locking in the job. And don’t forget to allow a 20% buffer for emergencies. Once you are ready to hire a pro, our directory will help you find one, no matter where you are. So whether you're looking for an Interior Designer in Melbourne or an Architect in Sydney, you can be sure to find a qualified expert for the job!
