Too often people go to extremes with kitchen designs - ultramodern or comfortable, stark and simple or complex and ornate. There are few real-life kitchens, however, that can live up to these highest of stylistic expectations under everyday conditions.
Some of their examples blend modern lines and materials with a touch of color, warmth, and a variety of visual and physical textures. Contrast and detail make some elements stand out from the otherwise simple elements.
Whether you are looking to build a commercial kitchen or redesign your own home cooking space it is worth considering more than one approach at the same time. An extreme design can seem convincing in a magazine but can you live with (and in) it?
