Spanish Island Kitchens

October 25, 2011 by Allison 6 Comments

Spanish kitchens - rustic Spanish kitchen emphasizes concrete, stucco and stone - style-files.com via AtticmagSpanish kitchens on the Balearic Island of Formentera use rustic natural materials for unique kitchen look.

Sandy white beaches and clear turquoise seas call most people to an island, but the architectural beauty of the homes cannot be dismissed. In these Spanish kitchens, concrete cabinet shells with rustic wood plank doors and drawer fronts offer a fitted look that still retains a natural edge. The hardware is simple, like everything else in the room. An expanse of wooden counters provide plenty of prep and serving space.  The lack of upper cabinets draw eyes toward the casement windows, and beyond.  Concrete floors are lightly stained a golden color.  One of my favorite features is the metal wall sconce with pivoting arm.

Another Spanish Country Kitchen uses fabric skirts to conceal under counter storage.

    My post-war kitchen in France had similar concrete lower cupboards (but no doors), and the sink was a long hunk of marble with a circular sink ground out of it, no upper cabinets. Been around a long time!

    Sounds neat, Tricia. Did you see the West Hollywood Italianate Kitchen? Also similar. I thought about doing our kitchen like this when we built, but my fear was being a guinea pig. If there is a next time, I might just do it. If not the kitchen, in the laundry room.

    Allison,
    I really, really like the mix of the concrete and textured wood!

    Still working on our house and trying to think how to use in the outdoor shower/bath for the sink area.

    Going to show pictures to my magic construction worker and see if he thinks we can come up with this. He can do concrete counters so why not cabinet shells????

    Thanks for the post.
