Kitchen of the week: Think Ice Green for Kitchen Cabinetry

No white or natural wood cabinetry for a change in this weeks' kitchen of the week.  This kitchen that I found at Erin's blog House of Turquoise caught my attention for its clever use of color in the cabinetry.  It's there but not in your face, the effect is almost as neutral as white or beige.  I also love the height of the cabinetry.  It’s smart to use all the wall space you have and make the entire area more functional and grander.  You may be wondering why all appliances that one can imagine are together in one kitchen...and that's because the owner is an apprentice chef who has incredibly good looking brass pendants hanging in her kitchen.  I mean...let's take a moment here...don't these pendants lend a life changing factor to this kitchen?

I kind of like how the backsplash looks from this angle where it adds uniqueness to the design elements.  The designer Dee Dee Taylor Hannah probably thought that there's been enough white subway tiles (something I still love regardless)  in the history of design and opted for something a little bit more modern for a traditional kitchen.  I'm not a big fan of this type of glass tile, but one of the things I love more about blogging is when I come across something that perhaps makes me think twice.  I never get tired of things that wake up all my senses and possibilities and in this kitchen those glass tiles really make all the sense.  I think that using white subway tiles in this kitchen would have probably made it one more typical kitchen. 

An integrated coffee maker, warmer drawer and whatever that thing under the microwave/oven is, are on my list for my next kitchen.

I usually do my computer work out of our kitchen table so one of the things I would love to have in my future kitchen is a work space in it to open letters, write notes and put together to-do lists... I would need a chair with back support though.  Can my list get any longer?  Enjoy!
