The evolution of a kitchen
03/09/09
When you first move into a new home, you often know you will be changing things in the house once your budget allows it. Here is a kitchen that went through some changes over a few years. See which one you like the most.
How the kitchen was built originally by a builder:
Kitchen cupboards painted white: also note the pantry door. We covered the glass with a board on both sides, painted it black with magnetic blackboard paint.
Back-splash changed from slate to white tile:
The first one has a warm tone, the second one a lot brighter and the third a clean, polished look. I like the fact that the white back-splash and the white cupboard doors provide a calm canvas; a background that can be splattered with any colour (appliances, bowls, baskets etc.)
