interiors : industrial kitchens

Kitchens, the work horse of the home, are the place where everyone mingles regardless of the size or what’s going on in the rest of the home. If you entertain, it’s important to have not only a functional kitchen, but also one that can accommodate friends and family. We all know they will end up here at some point or another, so why not make this work horse shine.

I like my kitchens light, open, and spare. One where everything has a place and there’s not too much stuff cluttering up the counters. A few weeks ago, I posted on project inspiration gathering here, a combination of industry and nature. As things are progressing, the project inspiration is too. These kitchens are just a few industrial inspired spaces I used as eye candy for my client during our last meeting. I always love a contrast of materials to keep things in balance and not falling in one particular style or being too matchy. Light vs. Dark. Stainless vs. Wood. Polished vs. Honed. Glamorous vs. Rustic are some of my favorite juxtapositions.
