I've got kitchens on the brain this week!
I'm very partial to painted kitchen cabinets, but I've always liked a little wood in there somewhere. It just gives some warmth and depth....a little flavor, no matter what the style. An island, a countertop, some open shelving, a section of cabinetry, ceiling beams, floor....please! Something?
Imagine these fabulous kitchens without the touch of wood.

Love that island above and
all the warmth that wood brings to each fabulous kitchen.
Great kitchens.
ReplyDeleteGORGEOUS kitchens!! Wish we installed a wood counter on my black island instead of granite.
ReplyDeleteSo many wonderful images. Have a great weekend Carla!
ReplyDeleteI love these kitchens and 100% agree that wood is a very necessary element. It really warms things up and keeps the rooms from being so light and airy that they float.
ReplyDeleteLove your style!

Hello,
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures of these gorgeous kitchens. Love the wood mixed in. I didn't add wood to our new kitchen but knocked down the wall between the kitchen and dining room to show off the farm table.
Thank you for sharing.
Love your blog!

I'm with you...love touch of wood, and these are some beautiful examples. Have a great weekend. Mona
ReplyDeleteCompletely agree....to me it is grounding...like adding black.
ReplyDeleteWe have a "baking area" with wood counters...and then many well used (and loved) cutting boards.
Love it. We had a kitchen once with an island with a butcher block top on an ink blue base...I loved it.
ReplyDeleteGreat collection. I'm really drawn to Ili Nilsson's kitchen because of the narrow kitchen island. I still have to post on my kitchen reno but I thought we would have a kitchen table - but it's not working out space wise. My grandmother's narrow drop leaf table is a place holder right now. This island is inspiration - thanks!
ReplyDeleteCould you tell me what the material is for the island counter top in Trip Haenisch's picture?
ReplyDeleteThanks!
Hi Mindy,
ReplyDeleteI don't know, but it looks like it could be honed black granite, Absolute Black maybe, then a white marble for the island, like a carrara or calacatta. That's what I 'm thinking. I think those could work if you're looking to do something similar.
