I absolutely love this kitchen. But was wondering where I could get other pictures of this kitchen. Of different angles, & one from the ceiling looking down onto the kitchen. Also the floor plan for it. Could you help me please? & thanks, it would be greatly appreciated.
Greatly appreciate the write up of it also.
Only thing I would change with the kitchen, would be changing the double sinks, to two large cast iron or ceramic vintage style sinks. One a deep double sinks with high backs, & vintage faucets that come out of the side, but closer to the top back part. The other sink would be a low sink-with built in draining board made out of the cast iron sink . So it's all in one sink. It also has a high back too. The deep sinks would be for washing large soup pots, large pressure cooker, crock pots, baking pans, etc. The lower sink would be for washing vegetable out of the garden, etc.
The wall color would be a light lavender or lilac color, with black trim throughout the kitchen. The windows I'd paint a royal blue color with white inside trim. The backsplash around the range would be a combination of blue, lavender,pink,& a light brown, glass tiles, with a black outside trim, around the whole backsplash.
My Ideal range would be a commercial dual fuel range with a double oven.6 elements on top, with a flat cook-top too, to the right side.
Or a Frigidaire double convention style oven-one on top of each other. With a induction stove top. Also add a stove-top-electric to the middle countertop. So when you have large gatherings, you have extra cooking surfaces for when guests are over. With 4-6 elements. But I would also add a french style Frigidaire fridge too. Plus a built-in dishwasher for washing the rest of the dishes. Stainless steel appliances.
My countertops, would be 1 of three choices, but I'm leaning towards the lavender color countertops. But was also thinking of using blue with white vein like lines throughout the blue, or a solid black countertop with the outside wall countertops, & either the lavender or the blue with a white vein like or marble look countertops,on the two inside islands.
The floors would be either barn wood flooring, or a stone like tile-in brown,beige,& blue color throughout the tile. It looks like you have marble flooring. Love them.
