HOW TO DESIGN AN INDUSTRIAL KITCHEN

I was flipping through June's House Beautiful the other day and stopped tight on the "Kitchen Of The Month"

I love the masculine organic feel of this space. 

 Don't get me wrong I am a "white kitchen girl" at heart only because it's timeless and  Lord knows changing out a kitchen is not as economical as changing out pillows right?

 I think I could be happy in this one though.

 I started thinking about doing this on a budget so I did a little research and came up with this.....just   in case there is someone out there hankering for this look!

Here is what I came up with.

1. Faucet

2. Cabinet Doors

3. Upper Cabinets

4. Caesarstone Honed Countertops

5. Barstools

6. Hardware

7. Subway Tile Backsplash

8. Dome Pendants

9. Paint Color

Speaking of the paint colors....have we forgotten what a great color BM Dragons Breath is?

Next up are those professional appliances which can cost an arm....a leg....and possible a kidney.

No worries.....now that cooking is popular [not around my house though] most appliance  companies have a "professional line".

Here is Frigidaire's version 

The designer of the fabulous kitchen above is Robert Stilin.....who is an AD Top 100 designer for the January 2016  issue!  Talent.

Look at his range.....

I picked a few other kitchens that reflect this style....

So to sum up the look of an industrial kitchen you need these elements....

Alright let's step away from kitchens for a minute to the stained saltillo floors in my last post.

I tried to get in touch with the faux painter but I am not sure he will part with this info.  I know....tragic.  I will work on it and hopefully I can give him a hard side eye.....he will get scared and give it up:)
