Re: Turquoise Kitchen, Pull Out Stove

It's interesting if you like ultra modern and you really love-love-love turquoise, but it's not on my radar for a kitchen re-do.

Re: Turquoise Kitchen, Pull Out Stove

While I like the turquoise I see the area as too sterile and cold.

Re: Turquoise Kitchen, Pull Out Stove

Interesting thread as I didn't know turquoise was a kitchen color in the 80s.  I do like it, except for the pull out stove.  Just could see too much going wrong with that.  And I'm a fan of the sterile look, especially in the kitchen.

My aunt had a kitchen like this in the fifties/sixties. All cabinets turquoise. It was the latest thing for her area at the time. Of course it wasn’t quite as sleek but for the time it was modern looking.


@proudlyfromNJ ,

My Aunt had a turquoise kitchen  in the 60's too..I loved it and wished we had it in our house. It was a lighter turquoise.


And my aunt had a nice modern kitchen with all built ins and all the appliances were turquoise.  The house was built in 1959. I loved it. Not that I had seen many kitchens other than our own in the late 50s but they were the first built ins and the first colored appliances I had seen.

I like turquoise, but this is too intense and too much of it.

Re: Turquoise Kitchen, Pull Out Stove

Even though it's a cool idea, I don't know that I would ever get a pull out stove.  I have a Dacor cooktop that is above the silverwear drawer.  I like the cabinetry in the kitchen and I would also like to replace the Dacor cooktop.  I can speak from experience that it is difficult to find a replacement that 'fits', regardless of brand.

There are times when you must speak, not because you are going to change the opposing side, but because if you do not speak, they have changed you.

No. That’s way too much turquoise for me.

Really like the turquoise color - but instead of the modern style, it would be better in contemporary I think.  Needs some accents such as the cabinet door handles & another pop of color on the backsplash.

I'm surprised I'm the first one to respond "yuck."
