Kitchen design...

I can't think of a better way to twiddle my thumbs spend my valuable time than to come up with kitchen designs for a kitchen I don't have in a house I don't own.  Right?

But since I am sitting here after teaching all morning, I thought I would take my few moments of "me time" and do just that.

These are my inspiration pictures....via Home Design Board

Light, bright and not a lot on the walls.  We are looking at downsizing considerably, so this next kitchen is going to be tiny tiny- and wall space will need to be clean and clear to visually give a bit more room.  I say this to my husband and he gets that Scooby Doo look.  (think head tilted and quizzical brow)

My material choices are pretty solid:

Soapstone countertops or honed black granite (at least in one area of the kitchen)

Honed Carrara marble on another area of the countertops or island (if the kitchen isn't the size of an island already!)

Nice and very quiet dishwasher

White subway tile with grey grout

White/Dove White Shaker style cabinets with simple brushed nickel pulls & white planked walls...

Vintage Big Chill fridge

Viking or Wolf stove

Interesting light fixtures.  Really leaning toward something in brass...

So there ya go.  My thinking on our new but completely fictional kitchen.
