Avoiding built-in cabinetry evokes cottage charm.
It is no secret I love unfitted English kitchens. Using actual furniture or furniture style pieces in the room makes it so less kitchen-like, a welcomed idea in open-concept floor plans. This example is typical of high-end unfitted English kitchens; an island with drawers and a slatted shelf for oversized pot storage, an elegant hutch displaying everyday dishes and a handy plate rack over the sink for drying. Lately, I’ve noticed the reappearance of the open pantry.
What is uncommon about this example is the lack of cabinetry color seen in most English kitchens and the fact that it was done by internationally acclaimed designers Mulvany and Rogers in one-twelfth miniature scale. For life-size unfitted kitchen inspiration be sure to see the Woodbine Cottage Kitchen and Teal Cabinet Kitchen. By searching unfitted and English you will discover more swoon worthy kitchens in our three hundred plus inventory that are sure to inspire.
