The homeowners wanted a fresh colour scheme.
At Pam and Bill MacGillivray's Limehouse, Ont., farmhouse, dark wood cabinets and dated countertops and flooring left the kitchen looking stale. The sink and stove were as far as possible from the fridge, and the stove had only two working elements.
Angular stainless steel handles give flat-fronted, minimalist cabinets a little edge.
A wall of classic white subway tile is a fresh alternative to paint and also doubles as the backsplash. Its light grey grout helps camouflage dirt. Post-renovation, the dishwasher was positioned next to the sink to help cleanup go faster. It's concealed behind panelling and fitted with a handle that matches the cabinets.
Before: Inefficient Kitchen Layout
It was time to say goodbye to mismatched light fixtures.
The kitchen needed a new layout, as the refrigerator was far from the rest of the appliances. A long peninsula blocked traffic flow in and out of the kitchen while entertaining.
Lay standard-sized tiles in a herringbone pattern for a bespoke look.
This island was built from butcherblock countertops cut down to size. Pairing the wood with a steel frame gives the piece an industrial farmhouse vibe. Its open storage is perfect for large pots and gives the kitchen a relaxed, unfitted feel. Moving the fridge closer to the stove created the work triangle homeowner Pam MacGillivray wanted. Double ovens accommodated the homeowners' youngest daughter's baking projects. An overall neutral colour scheme gives the room a timeless look.
