A Charming Airy Open Kitchen


This is a gorgeous open kitchen... Love the timber structure that somehow serves as a demarcation between the kitchen and the dining area. I love the concept of an open kitchen such as this because it allows the cook or whoever is busy in the kitchen to interact with the people in the dining area, it is very suitable especially if you are always entertaining guests or it could be a perfect space for family gathering. The floor looks great and so is the big window that invites so much light...and who wouldn't love those books orderly arranged in that bookshelf. I don't know about you, but books are a welcome sight in any room of my house. I love the idea of having a bench on one seating side of the long dining table, makes the space look casual, and the 3 mismatched chairs opposite is a charming touch. Plants... oh I love having plants indoors. And I love the sleek kitchen design of this charming airy open kitchen.

    Very nice. The timber adds history and weight to the space. Love that window too. Can't you just see three little children lined up there at the table having a snack or doing homework?

    Your home interiors should bring out the identity of who you are, so I was looking for an interior design that helps me out what is best for my home, so my neighbor tells me about Ranauta Interiors for the next I contact with them their work is so amazing. So if you want amazing kind of work, just contact with them.
