Contemporary Kitchen with a Rustic Twist

This fruity kitchen by ABK is inviting with its contemporary design and mix of materials and elements. Modern Italian tile has been used along the entire wall area, creating an extension of the backsplash and a larger canvas for the tile pattern. The colors play between pink, rust and strawberry tones, staying far away from the bright red diner look. Framing the modern tiles are the wood beams and wood flooring, which add a rustic charm; however, this charm is directly opposed by the large amount of silver and chrome used in the cabinetry and seating. The white lacquered island grounds the kitchen and is highlighted with a modern hanging light and four bright bar stools, creating a perfect area for casual entertainment. This kitchen various and colorful styles are sure to appeal to anyone who enjoys the blend of contemporary and rustic ideas.

Cool and Contemporary Kitchen: The Multipla Laccata

We are accustomed to seeing kitchens composed of warm dark wood and soft lighting. The Multipla Laccata is a stunning contrast with its airy and light appeal. The combination of smurf blue and white lacquered cabinets are perfect for a more contemporary kitchen, and offer a glimpse of winter charm. The snowy speckled floor adds to the character, and the glass shelves and frosted doors finish off the fresh look. The blue motif is picked up throughout the accessories with a variety of shades. The kitchen design is also positioned in a casual walk-through manner, allowing the kitchen to become part of the home as opposed to a separate room onto itself. This creates an abundance of space for cooking and entertaining. The Multipla Laccata is by Aerre Cucine.

Kitchen with an Open Ceiling Concept

An earthy kitchen with a massive amount of sky. This design offers an innovative combination of two rooms enjoyed by all: The kitchen and the sunroom. Each unit in the kitchen is freestanding, as if to create the least amount of obstruction as possible. This, along with the cubic pattern that is applied throughout, allows for a greater sense of depth and freedom. The design employs two cabinet colors – one pale, one warm – to create separate spaces without adding unnecessary walls. The seamless white floors are prefect for reflecting the temperament of the sky, while the frosted glass shelving and dark accessories provide the extra ingredient to this play of light and shadows.

Interesting Kitchen Elements

This Euromobil design introduces new functional elements to the contemporary kitchen. Along with a combination of strong steel and warm wood, the Filanta design highlights versatility and functional imagination. An island can sometimes create lost space in a kitchen, but why not add a bench to island – creating an attached breakfast bar in the centre of the kitchen. An open-ended bookcase in the kitchen is also a novel idea, giving you plenty of storage space for cookbooks or displaying items. The wall unit also divides the space in a manner that is not obstructive. The Filanta kitchen by Euromobil is designed for living, and creates a balance between functionality and style.
