This retro kitchen was showing its age.
Michael Penney and his wife Sara saw potential in the tiny kitchen of his new house. The tiles and floor were dated, but there were ceiling-high cupboards that allowed for plenty of storage, and decent counter space for the size of the space. Read more about his kitchen inspiration.
Linoleum flooring was traded in for French-style hexagonal floor tiles.
Michael and Sara decided to embrace the kitschy features that made their old kitchen charming. They wanted a bistro/farmhouse feel, so they painted out the cabinetry in a soft blue with a touch of grey, and splurged on new stainless-steel appliances, an American Standard farmhouse faucet, and Carrara marble counters.
Plastic tiles dated this 1950s kitchen.
Michael Penney and his wife Sara tackled the tiles after a family barbecue one day, scraping them off one-by-one. This wall is where they planned to put the refrigerator, but it would need new white tiles as a backdrop.
A collection of oversized green bottles on top of the fridge adds a style statement.
Michael and his Sara chose glossy white subway tiles in the kitchen to keep the attention on open shelving baskets and arrangements. Woven baskets overhead and underneath conceal clutter, and a rolling table is the perfect spot to create a vignette with carafes and plants.
