Throwing it back to this kitchen project today because it's such a good example of how thoughtful space planning can completely change how a kitchen feels.
Long spaces can be tricky, so instead of treating this kitchen like one long run, we created separate zones to give it more purpose and personality.
In this kitchen, we carved out a dedicated coffee/bar area complete with a wine fridge. Fun blue cabinetry and an architectural tile splash help set the space apart, while a tall larder cabinet sitting on the countertop creates a natural division from the rest of the kitchen. Honestly, one of my favorite things about larders is how versatile they are.
The result is a space that feels more intentional, more functional, and honestly just a lot more interesting! And if you love a good before and after as much as I do, swipe to the end to see what this space looked like before it became part of the kitchen.
