Homular interior bought it because to sink In teeth into renovating a property in sort of an up and coming area. so i renovated everything but the modular kitchen and probably real estate experts would say don't do that but i knew it was a contained space it was in the middle of an open concept. main floor it had a very large kitchen island in the middle that gave a lot of storage. i didn't want to have a solid modular kitchen island anymore actually wanted something that you could see passing through to the sun room. because it was sort of blocking that view so i had to maximize storage out of that small space best that i could part of the kitchen renovation was actually opening up the doorway or entryway into the sun room it was already open but it wasn't open enough and i wanted to bring in the light and let people see more of the prettiness of the sunroom. when they were standing in the kitchen so when i designed the kitchen i wanted to maximize storage and i used all the vertical space i could because it's the victorian and the ceilings are high but then there were some other smart solutions used to do that as well. so one of things to do in the modular kitchen are two in one drawers on either side of the stove you end up layering up the amount of storage that you get out of any drawer and it keeps you super organized.
so it's one of tricks and even in this tiny little space managed to squeeze in a little five slot wine rack critical really really was quite happy about that managed to solve all my storage needs in the galley kitchen itself and it allowed to do a kitchen island that no longer needed to serve that purpose it was just going to be a pretty piece of furniture that could be placed in the middle of the kitchen that i could perch up to and have a glass of wine with a friend or put groceries down on to unload into the fridge and it's a really lovely piece. it's one of pieces in the room i just the wood and it's just another element brought into the kitchen to warm. it up but the style the overall style of the kitchen was biggest challenges. to sort of really discipline to take a step back and what does this house need and a white kitchen just made sense at the same time i didn't want an all-white kitchen for brass and white i always have been i know brass is a trend we don't know about staying or not but if you something go for it so that really went far to warm up the kitchen.
The white that i chose as well for the kitchen is an off-white it's a very warm color by benjamin moore called snowfall white and i also decided to bring in lots of beat up bold art pieces and coveting this piece for at least two years and i couldn't be happier wake up every morning and quite thrilled to look at our frida on the wall she's colorful and fun and filled with whimsy the one thing it’s really quite pleased about in this kitchen is for a bar area in between two very tall vertical cabinets where i put a beautiful vase and there's a mirror there so it bounces the light around the room over the kitchen island table it's on a pulley system. which i just love because when trying to get a little bit of atmosphere in the room and you have a glass of wine with a friend you can pull the light down and it creates a little bit more intimacy around that table but you know if you want to pull it out of the way you can just pull it up and it offers task lighting there's also a neat little area that is open and there really to serve the function of having the door swing that goes down into the basement and to do something with that area. so i decided to create a little bit of a vignette there with woven baskets that got from snub and then put a little stool below because to actually climb up to get things sometimes it's a very vertical kitchen you know for the haters of white kitchens it's all in what you do with it you know i mean there's a reason why art galleries are white what you put into the kitchen can play a huge role in changing. the feeling of the space honestly think all those things turn it from being a white kitchen to a kitchen with character though the favorite thing of all about this kitchen is the fact that made it for is a fantastic worker is not a kitchen company not even set up to make kitchens but i approached him and after a lot of convincing agreed to do it for but he built it and it and honestly i think it's one of the most beautiful kitchens ever built.
