Pilar Guzman Kitchen

Ahhh!  Serious love here.  No uppers - that large glass front cabinet to hold all of the dishware.  Subway tile everywhere - and they used a different size than the standard tile.  The back of the glass cabinet also has subway tile inside top to bottom.  A complete mix of metals.  Hanging copper pots.  This kitchen is so unique.  There is so much to be inspired by.

I did tile the entire range wall in my kitchen - including the back of a glass front cabinet.  That's the main inspiration I used from this one of a kind space.

Kitchen inspiration week starts today on the blog.  Stop back each day this week for more spaces that really caught my eye.

Pearl Lowe Kitchen

Perfection.  All of the different paint colors - the large island with the glass lower cabinets.  I love all the things on the countertops.  The extra pieces of furniture thrown in to store more items.  The way the two glass front cabinets sit on the countertops.  White range.  A little subway tile.  Gallery wall and cozy seating.  Worn floor - this kitchen just looks so lived in and loved.  There is so much to like here.  This really would be my dream kitchen.  It has all of the colors I love plus so much character.  To me it is one of the most beautiful kitchen out there.

I wasn't sure how well all of this would translate into my own home.  I do have my old vintage island that is painted the color of those glass cabinets already.  I have a black raw metal cabinet which reminds me of the center island.  I also did put in a glass front cabinet.  So though my kitchen is all white I do also have this kitchen's color palette in the eating area.  This is just such a good kitchen.
