Mereway Light Grey and Tyrolean Blue Kitchen

This kitchen is a recent installation from the Mannings Heath area and has been designed by Aron from our Worthing showroom. The kitchen is another great example of open plan design, with a breakfast bar and seating area making the most of the generous space available for this kitchen. To achieve the desired shaker look in this kitchen the Charnwood door from British manufacturer Mereway has been used in light grey and Tyrolean blue colours. The Charnwood door uses a defined shaker profile which teamed with a smooth matt finish in one of sixteen shades creates an impactful shaker door. To create an open and sociable space a Tyrolean blue island and breakfast bar have been incorporated in the centre of the kitchen. In one run a wine bottle holder and semi-integrated dishwasher have been incorporated using light grey Mereway furniture and in the other appliance housing has been used facilitate built-in appliances.

L’intervento ha riguardato un appartamento facente parte di un edificio residenziale risalente agli anni ’50, che conservava i caratteri tipologici e funzionali dell’epoca. Il progetto si è concentrato sulla riorganizzazione degli ambienti al fine di soddisfare le esigenze dei committenti, in relazione agli usi contemporanei dell’abitare. Gli ambienti soggiorno e cucina, prima separati, sono stati collegati tramite la demolizione del muro divisorio e l’installazione di un infisso scorrevole in acciaio-vetro a tutt’altezza, consentendo di mantenere l’interazione visiva, pur rispettandone gli usi. La divisione funzionale degli ambienti è sottolineata tramite il cambiamento della pavimentazione e la gestione dei ribassamenti del soffitto. Per la pavimentazione principale dell’appartamento è stato scelto un parquet a spina ungherese, mentre per la cucina una lastra maxi-formato, con effetto graniglia, riproposta sulla parete verticale in corrispondenza del piano di lavoro. Il punto di vista dell’osservatore è catturato dal fondale del soggiorno in cui è installata una parete attrezzata, realizzata su misura, organizzata secondo un sistema di alloggi retroilluminati. Il passaggio alla zona notte ed ai servizi è stato garantito tramite l’apertura di un nuovo varco, in modo da ridurre gli spazi di disimpegno e ricavare una zona lavanderia. Il bagno è stato riorganizzato al fine di ottimizzarne gli spazi rispetto all’impostazione precedente, con la predisposizione di una doccia a filo pavimento e l’installazione di un doppio lavabo, allo scopo di ampliarne le possibilità di fruizione e sopperire alla mancanza di un doppio servizio. Per la pavimentazione è stata scelta una piastrella di forma quadrata dal disegno geometrico e dalla colorazione bianca grigia e nera, mentre per le pareti verticali la scelta è ricaduta su di una piastrella rettangolare diamantata di colore bianco. La camera da letto principale, in cui è stata inserita una cabina armadio, è stata organizzata in modo da valorizzare la collocazione del letto esaltandone la testata, decorata con carta da parati, e i due lati, nella cui corrispondenza sono stati predisposti due elementi continui in cartongesso che dal pavimento percorrono il soffitto. L’illuminazione generale dell’abitazione è garantita dalla predisposizione di faretti “a bicchiere”, riproposto in tutti gli ambienti, e l’utilizzo di lampade a sospensione in corrispondenza dei lavabi dei comodini. Le finiture e le soluzioni estetiche dell’intervento sono riconducibili allo stile classico-contemporaneo con la commistione di elementi in stile industriale.

2020 Knowles Project

Audus Kitchens

Here’s a 2020 kitchen with real WOW-factor. The client from Radlett near St Albans, wanted a space that was bang on trend and perfect for entertaining loved ones, but also a multi-functional space that they could enjoy the kids growing up in. There’s so much seating space in this area now, there’s certainly room for everyone, and the abundance of Siemens ovens makes this a real hosting kitchen. Our favourite part of this kitchen? The concrete quartz worktop. The industrial trend is really making a statement this year, but this hard-wearing worktop will last for years to come!

Whimsical in Westchester

Bilotta Kitchen & Home

Despite its diamond-mullioned exterior, this stately home’s interior takes a more light-hearted approach to design. The Dove White inset cabinetry is classic, with recessed panel doors, a deep bevel inside profile and a matching hood. Streamlined brass cup pulls and knobs are timeless. Departing from the ubiquitous crown molding is a square top trim. The layout supplies plenty of function: a paneled refrigerator; prep sink on the island; built-in microwave and second oven; built-in coffee maker; and a paneled wine refrigerator. Contrast is provided by the countertops and backsplash: honed black Jet Mist granite on the perimeter and a statement-making island top of exuberantly-patterned Arabescato Corchia Italian marble. Flooring pays homage to terrazzo floors popular in the 70’s: “Geotzzo” tiles of inlaid gray and Bianco Dolomite marble. Field tiles in the breakfast area and cooking zone perimeter are a mix of small chips; feature tiles under the island have modern rectangular Bianco Dolomite shapes. Enameled metal pendants and maple stools and dining chairs add a mid-century Scandinavian touch. The turquoise on the table base is a delightful surprise. An adjacent pantry has tall storage, cozy window seats, a playful petal table, colorful upholstered ottomans and a whimsical “balloon animal” stool.

Kitchen with Grey Splashback and Granite 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!
