Country Kitchen

This new build open concept combined kitchen and dining space presented several challenges. The kitchen itself serves as a thoroughfare to multiple spaces – the family room, laundry room, garage, primary suite to name a few. Truly the heart of the home and the main goal was to ensure that it functioned as such. As a home that toddlers and adults alike enjoy, dining space needed to be centrally located and casual while maintaining the traditional feel. Open to the adjacent family room, all selected fixtures needed to be mindful of sightlines throughout the space.

Location: Athens, GA

Project Overview:

Cassy worked with the contractor and cabinet maker on selections and finishes to ensure that the spaces worked seamlessly together while still feeling defined. The addition of painted beams and shiplap detailing on the ceiling help give visual cues of the division of space. Streamlined shaker cabinetry is painted to either blend in along the perimeter or like the island and hood, painted a fresh green/blue to create visual interest and help the kitchen feel connected to other adjacent spaces.

White offset Subway tiles serve as a simple backsplash in this classic kitchen. Open lantern style light fixtures with wood and metal elements were selected and installed higher than normal to allow for clean sightlines into the family room. A double pedestal dining table with a metal base and wire brushed finish and a dining bench allow for an easy to clean dining space for Grandchildren.
