1. Keep It High…

The Little Plus: the high ceiling beam woodwork of this airy kitchen. Notice the interesting use of exposed beams — they are used as decorative wall moldings and paired with large flat rectangular crown molding in the same stain  Also, the glass cabinet doors are made in the same pattern as the 3-panel window above the sink as if they were an extension of this large window. And, how about the color palette with its the predominantly white, silver gray, soft browns and indoor plants accents…seem plucked out of a home décor magazine.

2. Dining under the Lanterns…

The Little Plus: the sculptural bell jar lanterns that appear like art pieces in a gallery. And notice the glass cross mullion doors of the upper cabinets with a practical drawer underneath. Last but not least, the marble top of the kitchen island is a sophisticated companion to the white cabinetry and its base medium brown stain call back the darker hues on the brick backsplash.

3. Warm Embrace

The Little Plus: the single handle vintage kitchen faucet that adds a classic retro feel. So love this big window by the sink that let the sunlight pour in. Take a look at how the light through the window casts some shadows on the granite countertop creating a chiaroscuro effect much like Vermeer’s still life paintings. And notice how the glass cabinets, with wood moldings and an etched surface of the glass cabinet, look like a gentle drizzle, complete this cheerful and painterly kitchen corner.

4. Baby Blue Day Dreams…

The Little Plus:  the delicate mix of warm and cool tones. The soft, powder blue backdrop (including the subway tiled backsplash and a cute teapot lamp!) melds well with the white cabinetry, the grays of the countertops, and the natural wood finish of the hardwood floor.  Also, notice the mullion glass cabinets, with a muted classic arch design — they complete nicely the “classic cool” appearance of this white kitchen.

5. Dancing on the Marble Floor…

The Little Plus: the vertical opening cabinets that lift up or down gives this kitchen a trendy contemporary look while the light cream color warms it up. The muted opaque glass cabinets, on the other hand, opens out but this plays very nicely with the rest of the cabinetry. The other star of this kitchen is the grey granite countertop and backsplash. It brings in together the light earth tone of the kitchen, the light beige marble floor, and the stainless steel appliances and cooktop backsplash.

6. Quaint Chicness…

The Little Plus: the glass bowl pendant chandeliers hanging above the two-toned kitchen island with white marble top. They add a rustic accent to this more traditional kitchen. And did you notice how the glass cabinets come in two heights? Very convenient for easier access of persons of all sizes!

7. Old School Playful…

The Little Plus: the little bell-shaped lights and the whimsically colored balustrade as table legs. They give a playful vibe to the classic, old-school feel of this kitchen. The dark granite countertop also contrasts well with the wooden chairs. Arranged like a half circle as a divider between the kitchen and the next room, the countertop is convenient as it can function also like a bar for a spare of the moment wine night when cooking together. Also, notice how the traditional glass cabinets are well placed on the back wall for quickly setting up breakfast or dinner between soccer practices and homework.

8. Bold in Black…

The Little Plus: the very eye-catching black subway tiles with contrasting white grout backsplash. And notice the reeded glass cabinets above it — both beautiful and functional and complement the modern look of the space. And in a pinch, you can use the cooktop as a countertop – very strategic to optimize the use of space in any small kitchen.

9. Birthday Celebrations…

The Little Plus: the pair of beautiful restrained white schoolhouse style pendants hanging daintily from the ceiling in the middle of the room. And one last touch to keep company to the dark brown kitchen island…a brown leather couch accented with a selection of throw pillows in three different hues and sizes, one of which is a small delicate brown satin pillow that looks like “vieux rose” (i.e. old rose) when the sun shines on it.
