Metal base cabinetry, industrial-style pendant lighting, and a grey granite countertop give the kitchen a commercial feel. Warm wood and display cabinetry makes it feel homey.

West Chester Kitchen Remodel in Cherry

Chester County Kitchen & Bath

For this traditional kitchen remodel the clients chose Fieldstone cabinets in the Bainbridge door in Cherry wood with Toffee stain. This gave the kitchen a timeless warm look paired with the great new Fusion Max flooring in Chambord. Fusion Max flooring is a great real wood alternative. The flooring has the look and texture of actual wood while providing all the durability of a vinyl floor. This flooring is also more affordable than real wood. It looks fantastic! (Stop in our showroom to see it in person!) The Cambria quartz countertops in Canterbury add a natural stone look with the easy maintenance of quartz. We installed a built in butcher block section to the island countertop to make a great prep station for the cook using the new 36” commercial gas range top. We built a big new walkin pantry and installed plenty of shelving and countertop space for storage.

A custom hutch with glass doors and shaker style mullions to the far end of the kitchen creates additional storage for cook books, tea pots and small appliances. One of the drawers is fitted with an electrical outlet and serves as charging station for I-Pads and cell phones.

Küche mit natürlichen Baustoffen

ARCHITEKTUR COMPAGNIE

Die junge Familie wünschte sich eine neue Küche. Mehrere Jahre lebten sie mit einer Küche, die Sie von den Eltern übernommen hatten. Das war zum Einzug praktisch, denn Sie kamen zurück aus London in die alte Heimat. Nach einigen Jahren konnten Sie die alte Küche nicht mehr sehen und wünschten sich eine schlichte, praktische Küche mit natürlichen Baustoffen. Die L-Position blieb bestehen, aber alles drumherum veränderte sich. Schon alleine die neue Position der Spüle ermöglicht es nun zu zweit besser und entspannter an der Arbeitsfläche zu schnippeln, kochen und zu spülen. Kleiner Eingriff mit großer Wirkung. Die Position des Tisches (der für das Frühstück und den schnellen Snack zwischendurch) wurde ebenso verändert und als Hochtisch ausgeführt. Beruflich arbeiten sie sehr naturnah und wollten auch eine Küche haben, die weitestgehend mit Holz und natürlichen Baustoffen saniert wird. Die Wände und Decke wurden mit Lehm verputzt. Der Boden wurde von diversen Schichten Vinyl und Co befreit und mit einem Linoleum neu belegt. Die Küchenmöbel und wurden aus Dreischichtplatte Fichte gebaut. Die Fronten mit einer Kreidefarbe gestrichen und einem Wachs gegen Spritzwasser und Schmutz geschützt. Die Arbeitsplatte wurde aus Ahorn verleimt und ausschließlich geseift. Auf einen klassischen Fliesenspiegel wurde auch verzichtet. Stattdessen wurde dort ein Lehmspachtel dünn aufgezogen und mit einem Carnubawachs versiegelt. Ja, dass ist alles etwas pflegeintensiver. Funktioniert im Alltag aber problemlos. "Wir wissen es zu schätzen, dass uns natürliche Materialien umgeben und pflegen unsere Küche gerne. Wir fühlen uns rundum wohl! berichten die beiden Bauherren. Es gibt nicht nur geschlossene Hochschränke, sondern einige offene Regale. Der Zugriff zu den Dingen des täglichen Bedarfs geht einfach schneller und es belebt die Küche.

Fox Island Remodel

Brett Marlo Design Build

We bumped out the kitchen and put in a wall of windows to the expansive view. We designed a wall to both create an entry nook, and house the refrigerator and upper cabinets. A drywall enclosure was designed to give the range balance and become the focal point of the kitchen. The island was custom-wrapped in stainless steel and a cantilevered oval high eating bar was installed to again take advantage of views. We specified layers of fun lighting.

L-shaped Kitchen with Linoleum Floors 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!
