Window bench seat per original Kitchen Elements design - ingrid_mcduff

Oversize floor stencil used here to echo the oversize flower pattern used in the adjacent hall. Drawer faces are cut to mimic the openings on the salvaged pantry doors. Counters and backsplash are recycled chalkboards from Ballard High School fit with a stainless edge.

This well designed family space has a large dining area, raised breakfast bar, (zinc top), plus a cosy little reading spot in between the two areas of open shelving.
This is a truly functional space that is as well suited for family life as it is for a social gathering or get together!
The 2012 Decorator Showcase kitchen converted a narrow, mahoghany and granite butler's pantry into a bright and calming kitchen. Bloom and Hutson Wiley created a wood planked Union Jack on one wall to visually expand the space. Heath Ceramics tile and leather pulls add to the tactile warmth in the kitchen. Ralph Lauren Duodecahedron pendants, a wire dress sculpture by Kristine Mays and vintage breadboards complete the look. Photography by John Merkl.www.johnmerkl.com
