Country Charm – Beaconsfield home
Country Kitchen, Montreal
Although the kitchen is small – the appeal and the charm makes up for its small size and has a large impact on the functionality with all the modern conveniences and old charm materials.
Homeowners’ request: A contemporary farmhouse kitchen with a bright feel, modern appliances and open shelving for cook books, loads of storage and a space for baking.
I want my space to be functional, yet airy and not cluttered with stuff. I love my garden and would love to have easy access for all my herbs and chili peppers. I love spending my week-ends admiring the endless recipes from my cook books.
Designer secret: The combination of clean, crisp counters and slick appliances contrasts nicely with the heavy pattern of the floor tile and back splash, combining warm tones for the cabinetry and rich black hardware contrasts brings it all together. The blending of painted white trim, warm grey wall paint and the lacquered warm gray-(griege) cabinets, is interesting and layered. It creates more of a custom, blended look as opposed to an all white kitchen.
