MINT & MARBLE – HOW TO MAKE A SMALL MODERN KITCHEN WORK!

September 21, 2012
  • Share
kitchen with gold faucet, mint cabinets, marble slab backsplash and matching counter

I like this small kitchen with its flat front ever so slightly mint colored cabinets and the marble slab backsplash and counters. This small space works.

A one wall kitchen that is oh so small but feels light and airy and roomy. The key is the light colored cabinets, the white washed wood floors and the clean lines used throughout. There is no busy mosaic tile backsplash here. There is also an absence of drawerrs and doors with pulls and knobs and recessed panels. Clean simple.

I like the touch flavor with the gold or brass colored faucet on the sink. Very nice contrast.

To add a bit of personality, the eat in kitchen boasts a long table with mish mosh mix of chairs including some bentwood cafe style chairs and a host chair painted in a dark green to compliment the cabinets.  The round pendant light in chrome mirror finish adds light with its reflective surface too.

I like. Take a look.

What do you think of this small kitchen? Too minimalist for you or just right?

Happy Friday!

    I think this small kitchen is fabulous!!! I love the mix of tones and textures. Hmmmm, I wonder if you’re gathering ideas for your small home in the Hollywood hills? Thanks for sharing this inspiring space on this Happy Friday!

    I like the look of this kitchen, but it is not well planned. The stove is over by itself, can’t see a sink or refrigerator.

    I luv it. Refreshingly different and it has a great edgy-ness as well. Working outside of the box always gets my vote!

    I think the details in this kitchen are fantastic. Love the Tom Dixon Mirror Ball Pendant above the dining table. I also love the way the brass faucet plays against the gray and white marble. My vote is just right!

    Love it. Love the mix, the marble.
    Looks like a fun spot to gather for a meal or a coffee break.

    Love everything about this kitchen. The mint color is very calming and comforting. All the decorations are very artistic. Especially love the small desk by the window and the books on top of it, and the green plants on the dinning table(glad that green plants instead of flowers are used here). This kitchen has a personality of its own. Wonder who designed and decorated this kitchen. Thanks for sharing.
