Sub-Blogs

Appliance Notes is a blog where I file all the new and interesting kitchen appliances I see in the course of my work. I also include articles on choosing appliances here.
Kitschy Kitchens is a blog where I critique the worst of the worst in kitchens. Poor design, an assault on the eyes, wrong colors, wrong materials; they all can be found there. Take an amusing detour to discover what you DON'T want in a kitchen.

Inspiring Kitchens


Here is a collection of delightful photographs of retro kitchens from a great blog called ** Terramia ** "Living day by day, "Island Style", on the west coast of beautiful British Columbia... I love design, and this place called *home*"

Cuisine de Printemps

They are exotic and obviously foreign.




I especially love the exposed stove pipe in the first image. I have been dreaming of an adventuresome client who would let me run a red exposed pipe from a hood for years...Maybe someday.














Also the red stove kitchen. If you click on the image (on the Terramia site) you get a really large image to examine. My first recipe box (turquoise melamine) is sitting on the counter. I don't get the "jewelry box" hinges on the cabinets though. They could not possibly carry the weight of the doors.






I just HAD to save these for future inspiration.

  1. You have my dream job - designing kitchens! I've designed 2 for myself and had such fun.
    I did the first one because the contractor we were using, apparently, had never been in or used one....
    Thanks for stopping by my blog. I'm looking for the 'circle hoe'
