No adding on, just a shift in the location of the door that leads to the home office— space problem solved! Now the sink counter could run the length of a wall. Befitting the old house in Portland, Oregon, the new kitchen by Craftsman Design & Renovation is in the “sanitary” white-kitchen mode of the era. Better still, white-painted cabinets, budget-friendly white appliances, and a porcelain sink reflect light to create a cheerful room. Though not part of a modernized open plan, the kitchen feels spacious and connected. A glazed door lends a view to the office. Arts & Crafts-era details include inset cabinets, carved brackets, a linoleum floor, a ceramic-tile backsplash, and an island made from a salvaged piece. Red Dragon granite countertops and a complementary green wall paint enliven the scheme.
1. PERIOD DETAILS
Sawn brackets beneath the range hood recall the fancy-cut ends of rafter tails on bungalow eaves and porches. The flooring, cabinet design, hardware, and pendant lights all are based on those found in this period’s kitchens.
