Mid-Century Modern Kitchen Makeover

Plush Design Interiors

A lovingly cared for mid-century home was very original, but not functional or with modern appliances. With a nod to the bones and heritage of the home, the new kitchen was designed with a retro feel. The pantry and fridge were relocated but the original footprint largely adhered too. The raked ceilings are original but the original kitchen was entirely removed. A servery window was added to easily access the al fresco area. The combination of black and wood grain cabinets with white countertops were designed for modern function, but copper door handles and smoke glass splashback add a retro feel.

K Two Designs, Inc.

The exterior of this townhome is sheathed in sheet metal to give it an industrial vibe. This called for the same approach for the interior. The intimate kitchen was gutted to replace it with industrial, hardworking appliances. An European style refrigerator was installed that was taller but a thinner profile to take up less room and the molding was made wider so that the door could swing open without hitting the wall as it was in the old appliance. An industrial farmhouse sink was selected for its look and function, and the chef pull-down sprayer kitchen faucet gave the kitchen added character.

Cuisine sur mesure

Lucile C Design

Comment penser une cuisine sur mesure pour cette ancienne maison ? Faire quelque chose alliant la modernité et le côté pratique ? Cette maison, entièrement rénovée comporte à présent une grande pièce centrale. Ici, la cuisine est considérée comme étant le cœur de la maison. La lumière entre en permanence par les grandes fenêtres et baies vitrée. Par conséquent, nous avons imaginé une cuisine un peu plus sombre. Celle-ci est dans le coloris noir mat, qui ne marque pas les traces éventuelles de doigts et qui absorbe élégamment la lumière. Le côté ancien et chaleureux nécessaire à la maison est amené par les poutres et le parquet. De plus, les couleurs du carrelage et de la cuisine participent au côté moderne. Nous voulions penser cette cuisine sur mesure en longueur, pour marquer la forme de la pièce. De surcroit, il n’y a pas d’éléments en hauteur pour ne pas créer un effet écrasant dû à la présence des poutres. Les étagères, entièrement ouvertes sont les seuls éléments hauts qui existent. Elles permettent alors de laisser l’espace aéré. Par ailleurs, il n’y a pas de colonnes pour placer les éléments. Car le réfrigérateur est un modèle qui se trouve sous le plan de travail et s’ouvre grâce à des tiroirs. Sans compter le four, qui se regroupe avec les feux de cuissons en un grand piano. Très pratique pour une famille nombreuse ! De plus, l’îlot central lie la salle à manger à la cuisine. Celle-ci n’est délimitée que par le carrelage. Ils sont de forme hexagonale et de couleur différentes pour apporter du peps dans la décoration. La salle à manger est meublée avec des meubles chinés à droite à gauche. Cela a pour but d’apporter un côté désordonné mais de qualité et bien choisi.

Black Kitchen with Exposed Beam 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!
