The sconces were finds from the Paris Flea Market.

Cool Kitchen in California

Upon learning his client was a serious cook, designer Peter Dunham immediately began brainstorming ways to balance functionality and brilliance within this California kitchen. A steele-and-brass custom hood, inspired by 19th-century English houses, became the main focal and decor point of the space.

18

Dramatic Kitchen in Paris

Smokey tones and striking sculptural elements offer a dramatic flair to this quaint cook space by Paris-based designer Jean-Louis Deniot. The upper cabinets fitted with mirrored eglomise facings “almost look like venetian blinds,” notes the designer. The range is from La Cornue.

Aqua Kitchen on Long Island

The aqua ceiling (Picture Perfect by Benjamin Moore) and blue-patterned wallcovering casts a soothing glow over designer Meg Braff’s Long Island kitchen. The watery hues are complimented by a mix of white furnishings such as the updated cabinetry (painted white by Fine Paints of Europe), double range from BlueStar, and Danby marble countertops.

20

Olive Green Kitchen in England

Olive green tones and mossy grays reference the English landscape outside the windows of this Shropshire kitchen renovated by design firm Plain English. The prep island at the center of the cook space helps connect the room to its origins as an 1890 farmhouse with freestanding furniture.

Neutral Kitchen in South Carolina

In a Low Country hunting lodge designed by Andrew Howard, brushed brass-and-copper station lights and a walnut island with baluster legs offer an old-fashioned sense to the updated kitchen.

23

Open Kitchen on Long Island

As an avid hostess and entertainer, it was important to Today show host Jenna Bush Hager for her Long Island kitchen to have a greater sense of openness. Together with her husband Henry, the couple did an overhaul of the kitchen, replacing the cabinetry and painting it a soothing grayish-blue (Wedgewood Gray by Benjamin Moore). The fireclay apron-front sink (Rohl) and glazed tile (Waterworks) were also updates to the midcentury kitchen.

24

Marble Kitchen in Connecticut

Farmhouse Kitchen in France

In the spirit of traditional Provençal farmhouse style, designer Susan Bednar Long painted the kitchen cabinetry in this France home a creamy neutral color (Wimbourne White) with pops of light blue (Light Blue). The pendant lights from The Urban Electric Co. offer a slight contrast against the wooden island and farm table. All paint colors are from Farrow & Ball.

Natural Kitchen in the Hamptons

With a vivacious shade and graphic patterns coursing throughout, designer Katie Ridder needed to find a way to ensure the colorful mix didn’t feel chaotic in this Hamptons retreat. Rattan furnishings and wood surfaces like the cerused rift white oak paneling in the kitchen, “bring in an element of calm,” as Ridder explained. The Anthony Lawrence-Belfair banquette is covered in a Svenskt Tenn fabric.

32

Patterned Kitchen in Alabama

Dizzy patterns flood every corner of this 1950s Alabama home, even within the kitchen’s original cabinetry. To complement the lining, designer Mark D. Sikes painted the space a refined powder-blue shade (Parma Gray by Farrow & Ball).

Historic Kitchen in Pennsylvania

In this 1850 Pennsylvania farmhouse kitchen and breakfast room, designer Richard Keith Langham painted the cabinetry a juicy berry shade (Raisin Torte by Benjamin Moore), adding exuberance back into the historic home.
