This kitchen may be small but it is very up-to-date and functional. The designer has incorporated many interesting and unique features that make this room special.
- The arched cutout above the sink adds a special touch to an often overlooked area.
- An interesting tile design behind the stove that mimics a quilting pattern adds a homey feel to the room.
- Stainless steel appliances and a flat screen television bring this traditional room into the new millennium.
- The ogee edging is an elegant addition to the granite countertops.
- Simple pendant lights and understated hardware and fixtures do not compete with the beautiful finishes in the room.
- Large floor tiles laid on the diagonal make the room appear larger.
That being said, all the detail in the cabinetry and woodwork is what really makes this kitchen special.
- The dentil molding above the cabinetry adds a rich and traditional look.
- Faux panels at the end of the cabinets and on the island create a finished and expensive appearance.
- The columns placed next to the sink area and on the island add an air of importance to these spaces.
- Glass paneled doors offer space to display collectibles or pretty dinnerware.
The open space and warm tones make this kitchen an inviting space to entertain family and friends.
