I love vintage kitchens. There is something so comforting and unpretentious about them, filled with character and they look even better with scratches in the butcher block, wine stains on the counters, and pots and pans hanging from any surface with a hook. I thought I would do a round-up of vintage kitchens (love the ones with industrial touches too) in the hopes of inspiring anyone who has a vintage kitchen to maybe reconsider updating it. Because you may regret it.

I am not usually a fan of white walls but in this case, when the home is filled with earthy colours and textures brought in with vintage furnishings complete with peeling paint, it works. Really really well. I love this location house available via Shoot Factory.

This is the perfect corner. Rustic and chic. From the Brookyln home of Aya Yamanouchi-Lloyd – as seen here via Homelife.

OK so I’m not sure it’s a farm just a farm house but what a perfect home to grow a family. Layers of living. Life’s little treasures strewn here and there. The old and the new. Gumboots and four legged friends and concrete floors. Plaid and beams and bingo cards. Just bliss. Kent farmhouse from jj Locations.

Ok, I had to share one last project by The New Design Group….mainly because this one was clear right away who inspired some of the bold decor choices. 🙂 We wanted to instill a fun atmosphere in this beautiful townhouse by using a bold palette. To give the space a younger feel we decided to paint out most of the period features (to tone them down) and then layer styles from different eras for an eclectic and inviting look. We sourced and repurposed items from a variety of places: thrift shops, antique dealers, high street and custom made orders (the hot pink lacquered coffee table is based on an original design by Abigail Ahern).
