I basically like this kitchen but would add some color. I think the chairs sit too low for the counter, and I'm not loving the corner cabinets or the hanging lights so I'd remove & replace those items.

Cabinets on the backwall reminds  me of  Pilgrim era.  They do add alot of extra storage . Wish I had  extra storage  in my kitchen for so much cookware and talbe settings.

Re: Chunky Look in the Kitchen...

The cabinets are OK and look functional.

 

Those upholstered chairs would be a tripping hazard because none my family members would bother to push in the chairs. It is no use, no matter how many times I ask the chairs still wind up blocking the pathway to the bathroom (great in the dark of night), and/or blocking the way to the garage.  Not to mention the shoes they would leave when sitting to take them off. Plus, upholstered chairs would hold in all the cooking smells as well as be splattered with the cooking oils an maybe spilled food.

 

I would need night vision goggles if I lived here.

Re: Chunky Look in the Kitchen...

it's a nice, spacious kitchen. the upholstered chairs are not a good idea though, as smells can stick strongly to fabric.

This seems to me like a very functional kitchen.  Great for a family and plenty of working space.  The only thing I might do is different upholstery for the chairs.  Nothing real bright and still keeping it subtle. I could definitely live with this kitchen!

Re: Chunky Look in the Kitchen...

I really like this kitchen. I think I would like a higher back chair done in a black and cream fabric.

If I were sitting in one of those chairs, my neck would be at table height.

@stevieb 

The title you gave this kitchen fits good.  I like most of the kitchen - changes I'd make:  those corner cabinets are odd w/ the slanted tops (they remind me of wooden kitchen trash cans I've seen) so I'd have them flat instead, add pops of color .. the seats would be a good place to start & also change the floor to tile or change the island color.  There's too much wood going on.  I do love those gorgeous windows & the lighting.

Thank you for sharing.
