New Hampshire Farmhouse Kitchen

March 5, 2012 by Jane F 16 Comments

yellow farmhouse kitchen with pine-green tiled range niche - Smith and Vansant via AtticmagSunny colors and a dramatic tiled range niche offer a timeless look for a farmhouse kitchen.

Stop for a moment and study the color of the green tile in the niche just above the range in this timeless farmhouse kitchen.  Then re-imagine neutral-color tile. Blah! That’s because tile can be the most powerful factor in a kitchen with more impact than paint.  Wherever it’s used, tile adds the proverbial triple play – color, texture and pattern.

The tall pantry cabinet painted pale orange offers a hint of Shaker kitchen style we also saw in the Dove Gray Shaker Kitchen. Abundant natural light keeps it bright. So the eye automatically is drawn to tile as dark as these pine-green Arts & Crafts  crackle squares in the recessed space that hugs the Wolf dual-fuel range.

While I don’t have the exact source for the tile, it’s similar to revival styles that can be found in collections by Mission Tile West, and North Country Tile in Vermont, home base to the architects, Smith and Vansant.

The niche ceiling is also tiled, which makes for easy cleaning.

Shallow condiment shelves are built in on each side and while I quibble with storing olive oil or spices in a location that gets hot, there can be no argument about the convenience of having a mini pantry so close by. Note the rustic stone shelves and elegant textured Greek key motif border tile.

While appliances are usually the tipping point, having a kitchen with a color scheme as original as this one, and uncommonly fine tile brings it up to classic quality.

    Beautiful example of a range niche done right! There was a thread over on GW about range niches, and so many of them were created with no landing / work space. I love the scale of this one and the tiles are gorgeous! Thanks for sharing.

    Absolutely rocking colors many so many colors, most very saturated, right down to the red knobs on the range. I’m tired of neutral. Bravo. Where’s the fridge? I’d hope one could approach something like this on a less elite budget.

    Love the theme week! (Big surprise, I’m sure) Like Lax said, this niche is done right with workspace included, and I’ve been trying to figure out how to incorporate better spice storage like they have. The tile is really great. Not sure I’d go quite that color, but I think it’s the gold that I don’t like, not the green. I do love the bunnies… a lot. 🙂

    Agree, it’s really done right and I do see that very often. Lighting in the top, plus the tile and then the workspace on each side with a drawer stack below are pluperfect and show an arch who knows how a kitchen should work. Even those with the space don’t think it through as well.

    And it’s nice to see some real color vs white white white. Nothing wrong with white but so much of it!

    Terry — do think the concept could be done with any range and any kitchen if the designer was good enough. Fridge (SZ) is also paneled to match cabinets and just to left of range niche.

    I know this is an old post, but I would like to have a yellow kitchen and I love the floor in your picture. Could you tell me what the actual color and brand are?

      Hi Eileen,
      I don’t have the exact source and this isn’t a new kitchen. But these pavers from Vermont’s North Country Tile will give a similar look.

      Thanks for stopping by. Best, Jane
