This was a very personal project as it was for my family’s home. For 15 years we lived with a small kitchen that I did a quick update of painting and changing hardware back when we moved in. It took a lot of planning and organizing to get our new kitchen right. I love the tongue and groove ceiling, beadboard backsplash, instant boiling water and freezing water on demand, our tea and mug drawer, backless 3 sided dish cupboard, polished nickel faucets and unlacquered brass hardware, panelled appliances, sky blue stove and all the conveniences of a custom kitchen designed just for us. I based the kitchen design with an English seaside cottage feeling.
