A Kitchen Update When You Need A Change At Home

Time for tea 🍵 and tile this Thursday! 

🍏 It’s that pick me up time for me, when I need my daily tea. As I’m boiling the water in the kettle now, thought I’d pop in here quickly as I really want to share a kitchen tip for you to consider on Thursday Tip day! While we are home more than ever, I bet you’re looking around your kitchen, just like me, here in Delray Beach, wondering, thinking about ways you want it to perform better, look better and feel better. 

Inspiration comes from many places. As a Designer, I must take my cues from the job, not just the project itself, but from the entire house and the future goals of how the owner wants the house to look, feel and function. When we start to curate items to be used in a job, sometimes there’s one main influencer, such as the style of cabinetry, or the color palette. This breathtaking, luxurious tile set me on my journey for this amazing, full scale plan for a kitchen renovation.

Do you love it as much as I did, when I first found this find in Palm Beach? This elegant combination of White Thassos, Blue Celeste and Azul Macauba marble composed in an intricate mosaic is just the right, stunning yet classical inspiration for this home for many years to come.  Clovers and diamonds are classic shapes that will be timeless. This job began with my layout and then curating and sourcing all the structural goods of cabinets, flooring and appliances. Then it was on to the furnishings and finishing touches! So many items need to come together in a cohesive fashion. Here is one of Mood boards completed, the Design Mood Board for the furnishings. Note the biophilic design with natural elements, tying the outdoors with the inside.

🍒 Our kitchens are the heart of the home, and it’s the cozy feeling of well-being we need now. We spend so much time planning, prepping, cooking and cleaning in there, plus feeding our families around the table. We enjoy all the time in here, together. We should equally enjoy the aesthetics of the space!

My client was speechless. She said this job far exceeded her expectations. The renovation includes an island entertaining area, with access to an outside patio, top chef inspired appliances, nickel hardware, a wine server, stainless mesh pantry wall, and an eat in kitchen, with eclectic, custom furnishings, unique lighting, fine art, and few well placed fleurs. 🌸

Quick TIP For A Change

🍋 Have white cabinets in decent shape but with dated Tuscan or 90’s tile? The Tuscan look was all the rage here in Delray Beach twenty or twenty five years ago, maybe it was by you, too. Dated tile just looks tired, and makes your kitchen feel unloved. If you’re not ready to consider a full overhaul with a total kitchen renovation, why not make lemonade out of those lemons? Let us help you solve your tired house issues. Bring us in to determine some faster fixes to update your look now. As a kitchen designer, I adore 💕 helping our clients live intentionally, to realize the beauty in their homes, and to remind them of what made them fall in love with house when they bought it. It’s all about creating your dreams.
