As Remodelista editors, we see many, many kitchens and what we’ve been noticing during the last decade is a sluggish de-kitchening of kitchens—a development towards fewer cumbersome higher cupboards, a choice for elements that look extra like high-end furnishings, a want to embellish the house as you’ll another room (with artwork, books, desk lamps, and so on.).
These days, we’ve noticed fairly just a few kitchens that break the standard kitchen mould—virtually utterly—and, because of decrease cupboards that mimic the looks of sideboards, look extra like dwelling or eating rooms.
Above: This kitchen masquerading as a superbly crafted console is, no shock, made by a furnishings firm. You’ll be able to custom-order The Broad from London-based studio Edward Collinson. The piece options oak drawers, a grey Marquina marble counter, a brass faucet, and a Nicola Tesla induction hob. {Photograph} by Felix Speller, styling by Hannah Franklin, courtesy of Collinson.
Above: Reasonably than a thick stone countertop, a sliver of stainless-steel tops this size of kitchen counters for a extra sideboard-like look. The eat-in kitchen (by Reform) was designed for a household of 4 in Denmark. Included on this part are an induction cooktop, an built-in extractor fan, and a sink (simply out of view, to the correct). A dishwasher is hid behind a panel made to appear to be two drawers. {Photograph} courtesy of Reform.
Above: Right here’s one other instance of a kitchen crafted by a furnishings maker, this time by Barcelona-based Marc Morro. “The concept was to design and create a kitchen that might look as a bit of furnishings for the lounge,” he tells us about this inexperienced varnished MDF and strong iroko piece. {Photograph} by Yosigo, courtesy of Marc Morro.
