    New Kitchen Fixtures

    Update your faucet for a new look.

    The faucet draws a lot of attention and is the most used fixture in the kitchen, so even this single change can make a big difference. Chrome gives a sleek look, or try something trendy like a matte black to add some edge.

    Create your own gradient backsplash.

    When designer Jennifer Reid and her family renovated their house, they chose high and low additions to make sure they stayed within budget. They wanted a gradient or shaded tile effect for the backsplash, but it was expensive, so they purchased tile and created the effect for themselves by exchanging the dominant grey tiles for white ones. Ready-made cabinets from The Home Depot and Ikea hardware also cut costs.

    Sleek & Sophisticated Kitchen

    Paint your bulletin board to add a dash of colour.

    This compact kitchen used to be crowded and dysfunctional, with a jumble of cabinets, little storage and a bad layout. A fresh coat of white paint brightens up the space; the island is placed to allow for easy traffic flow and cleverly incorporates a built-in microwave and dishwasher.

    Mix inexpensive butcherblock with bold black cabinets for a town-and-country feel.

    The combination of brass pulls, soft wood and gentle blues create a friendly Euro-farmhouse flavour in H&H executive editor Beth Hitchcock’s renovated kitchen.

    Use salvaged beams for open shelving.

    After structural and water issues demolished their home reno budget, Danielle Nicholas and husband Greg Bryk, from the W Network show Building Bryks, made cost-cutting decisions with their kitchen. Beams salvaged during the renovation became handsome but inexpensive shelves, and the poured concrete counters are virtually indestructible.

    Use a restricted colour palette and collections of organic accessories for a chic look.

    In his apartment’s original all-white kitchen, designer Brad Ford uses wood accessories to create a cohesive neutral and white colour scheme. A large movable cart with a butcherblock top provides ample storage in the pint-sized space.

    Paint embossed wallpaper with a dark high-gloss paint for an eye-catching and inexpensive alternative to tile.

    Susan and William Brinson’s kitchen features the same eclectic mix of styles as their bedroom. With a large, open design to accommodate William’s food photography shoots, this rustic-meets-industrial kitchen combines inexpensive countertops, cabinets and a sink from Ikea. Embossed wallpaper painted in a dark high-gloss paint is an eye-catching and unexpected element in this space.

    Savvy Small Kitchen Storage Ideas

    Customize cheap and chic baskets with numbers for much-needed storage.

    Numbered baskets across the top of the upper cabinets provides much-needed storage, warmth and texture to the basic white kitchen, while a hanging pot rack acts as a functional ‘chandelier.’ A butcher-block topped island doubles counterspace, and when two stools are added, creates a casual breakfast spot. A vintage chest, acquired from a university science lab, holds linens, flatware and baking utensils, freeing kitchen cabinets for larger items.

    Vintage Kitchen Chest

    Refit a flea-market find with new pulls and an aluminum top.

    Stylist Heidi Lewis fell in love with this chest, acquired through a friend who worked at a university science lab. “Usually I only buy vintage if all it needs is a good scrub,” she says. “But this piece was too good to pass up — I was determined to make it work.” Now it houses linens, flatware and baking utensils. Above, basic Ikea shelves are dressed up with decorative wood brackets.

    Incorporate painted flea-market furniture and budget-friendly country accents.

    Pale blue tiles set in a diamond pattern add texture to this kitchen’s crisp white cabinetry. “I know the rug looks like something you’d find in your grandmother’s home,” says homeowner Richard Ouellette. “But I think it’s fun — it doesn’t take itself too seriously.”

    Opt for rustic painted wood boards and vintage enamelware and ceramics.

    A powder-blue range-style cooker provides a strong shot of colour, which is echoed in the vintage enamelware and ceramics. Glossy subway tiles help to reflect light back into the room, while oversized reproduction factory lights play with scale.

    Use paint for a dramatic feature wall and forego the expense of tile.

    Toronto design consultant and stylist Alison Booth broke through walls to create her vision of the perfect home. In the kitchen, modern hits include a dramatic black feature wall, chunky Corian countertops and industrial wire pendant lights, while rattan bar stools, off-cut oak floors and a rough-hewn bowl keep the overall look soft.

    High-Contrast Traditional Kitchen

    Build out cabinets around appliances to give them a more custom look without the expense of counter-depth units.

    Cameron chose classic white cabinets to contrast with the dark Hanstone countertop and graphic rug. Handmade water-hued tiles add gorgeous texture and shine. Larger industrial-inspired stainless-steel appliances make cooking easier and elevate the look of the generously sized kitchen. The cabinets around the fridge were built out to give it a more custom look without the expense of a counter-depth unit. Deep drawers for pots on either side of the stove make reaching things much easier.

    Charming Retro Kitchen

    Embrace the kitschy features of your old kitchen.

    H&H style editor Michael Penney and his wife Sara decided to embrace the kitschy features that made their old kitchen charming. They wanted a bistro/farmhouse feel, so they painted out the cabinetry in a soft blue with a touch of grey, and splurged on new stainless-steel appliances, an American Standard farmhouse faucet, and Carrara marble counters. Read more about their kitchen inspiration.

Woven baskets overhead and underneath conceal clutter, and a rolling table is the perfect spot to create a vignette with carafes and plants. Read more about their kitchen inspiration.

    Country Condo Kitchen

    Swap boring lights with pretty pendants to layer character into a rental.

    Apart from swapping the contemporary pendants for industrial-style ones, the only other changes applied to this condo kitchen are pure decorating. H&H style editor Michael Penney added vintage pottery, hits of copper and weathered herb pots to give the new space a well-used feel.

    Use a vintage table in lieu of an expensive, blocky island.

    Using store-bought cabinets, an apron-front sink and classic finishes, design editor Cameron MacNeil created a relaxed space. The glass-fronted cabinets, open shelves and butcher-block counters are key to the room’s casual feel.

    Hide a dishwasher and lower shelves with a curtain.

    Sticking to as few types of glassware as possible will keep costs down, and create a neat look when lined up. Inexpensive open shelves, old wine casks and a wicker basket holding condiments create an unfitted and European look.

    Martha Stewart Style Kitchen

    Get a high-end aesthetic at a low price from a big box store.

    Martha’s new line of kitchens for The Home Depot brings a high-end aesthetic to the big-box store. Architectural corbels, synthetic marble counters and detailed cabinetry are what make this kitchen. Frosted glass on upper cabinets conceal contents and shelves keep cookbooks within easy reach. Cups and glasses line up on shelves in the same colour as the cabinets.

    Rustic Cottage Kitchen

    Opt for an intentionally unfinished look.

    Exposed rustic planks and beams give this cottage kitchen a dramatic sense of height. The darker wood farm table and Hans Wegner Wishbone chairs break up the monochromatic palette. The overall ‘unfinished’ vibe of the kitchen, complete with linen curtains covering lower shelves instead of closed cabinets, offers even more character.

    Vintage wood signs, exposed black iron hinges, old metal buckets as vases and a ticking-striped fabric Roman shade all read as country. Paired with white walls, a sleek countertop and drop sink with on-trend painted grey cabinets, however, the look is clean and fresh.

    Go right to the ceiling to take advantage of all available wall space.

    Keeping less-frequently used items, such as appliances or serving bowls, on the top shelves means more storage space below for everyday items. The extensive use of canisters and baskets keeps this open shelving area from looking messy or cluttered.

    DIY Kitchen Reno

    Embrace a small window to avoid the big expense of enlarging it.

    Homeowners Jane and Jeff Wood were able to splurge on high-end appliances by using Ikea’s Abstrakt and Rubrik systems in lieu of custom cabinetry. Affordable white subway tile and open shelving made the small window blend into the space, eliminating the big expense of enlarging it. A white and steel palette keeps the room bright and fresh, and accessories like a tea towel and stand mixer inject colour and personality.

    “The utilitarian loveliness of this battered old wooden table works magic in this casual kitchen setting — so many textures and surfaces,” says Fiona Richards, the Nelson, B.C. artist behind the inspiring Cafe Cartolina blog and owner of Cartolina Cards. “I would drag this rustic piece home any day and park it in my kitchen!”

    Plywood Cottage Kitchen

    Use unfinished wood for a contemporary rustic look.

    Cottage owners Juli Daoust and John Baker installed the kitchen cabinets themselves and kept the original stove, knowing they would be mostly barbecuing. An under-counter fridge with pullout drawers saves space. “It was a $600 floor model,” says John. “We added our own plywood panelling and wood handles.”
