Kitchen Time

Hi All,

We are back to tour you through some of exclusively designed kitchens. As you know kitchen is one area which not only needs unique design, bespoke furniture, and feasible functionality. As we observe, there are several designers who concentrate more on aesthetics rather than functionality. But, we believe that functionality is one aspect where a designer's ability is revealed. 
Following are few designs which we think are good in all aspects yet innovative and creative. 
The new age stylish kitchen with minimal stuff and varying colours and cabinets with modular finish. the lamps add to the total look. Suitable for a studio styled small spaced apartment.
The kitchen above is all concrete finished without paint finish. This we think is one of the innovative kitchens especially the material with unfinished look but still doesn't seem incomplete. The white stools are a value addition to the design.
The kitchen with roof top windows and pale blue colour background, white paint finished wooden cabinets is  also a one of its kind design. The top ventilation eliminates the use of artificial lighting and gives a great night sky view as well.
The white background and minimal furniture and stuff in the background with wooden additions and the marble finished platforms also add to the beauty. But, this kind kitchen would be apt for a farmhouse, or barn house instead of a regularly used kitchen. 
The rustic finished wooden cabinets and rustic finished white walls along with unpolished flooring is one which is very much apt for country styled kitchen. 
The French styled kitchen, with all rustic materials and re-purposed furniture is simple yet different. Again, we think this is the kinda kitchen which is very much suitable for a barn or farm house.
For a medium sized home or apartment, this creative kitchen would be apt. As you notice, most of the modern kitchens are white finished with wooden cabinets and maximum ventilation.
The above space uses the vintage colour for the cabinets but vintage is the new age design concept. The backgrounds in grey and metal elements such as the stool and huge studio lamp add to the look. We are inspired by these various designs, how about you.

Go Green - Repurposed!!!

Hi

We apologize for not keeping up with the posting schedule. Few other commitments kept us occupied. We are back with the new idea of salvaging wood known as re-purposed wood. We did mention in one of our earlier post about the new upcycling term which has been coined to represent a sustainable practice. This post as well is focussed on a trendy sustainable practice. We would love to implement this strategy for our home too. Have a look to find what we are talking about.

After the useful life of the wood, we tend to send it to recycle which involves certain amount of energy, transportation, etc. While this repurposing technique is cool and easy to adopt, and also contributes to environment.

 The above centre table is a repurposed wood from a salvaged door. The choice of colour of the legs makes it look trendy and unique.

 The sitting bench above is again a salvaged wood, reclaimed and re painted.

                    
The above item is definitely new and cool. The planters on either of the lawn bench make it aesthetic too. 
 The one of its kind idea to repurpose old books. It does not fall into the wood category but a good idea. While the longevity of this product remains a question to me, the idea seems quite different.
                           
A kitchen cabinet which is made up of scrap wood reclaimed from doors and windows gives a very different rustic feel to the space.
The head board of a bed with some salvaged wood 
Another cute idea of repurposed rubber tyres and some salvaged wood pieces make up to a beautiful landscape design.

While all the above items are good ideas, this one is a masterpiece. The crib was turned to a study table. 


We are very much inspired by this repurpose idea...we are planning to get most of our furniture done with repurposed wood and get a rustic feel for our home. Do you have like to have similar theme for your space. Write to us to know more details.
