How To Give Your Kitchen Major Santorini Vibes

Now, this is a kitchen I want to wake up to every morning. It's so simple, yet makes such a statement. Not only does the blue and white palette have me in a Santorini-state-of-mind, but I love how an island splashed with a happy hue brings so much vibrance to the space without feeling overwhelming. Designers Megan Papworth and Dawn Terry of E. Interiors break down their vision below and you can find more in The Vault captured by Nick Sorenson.

From the Megan Papworth and Dawn Terry of E. Interiors... This project involved a full remodel of a kitchen that included taking the kitchen down to the studs and ripping and replacing the flooring throughout the whole house. This space started as a dark and dated kitchen that was filled with over 50 rooster figurines. We wanted to create a modern farmhouse feel in this space with lots of texture and mixed metals.

We wanted to really make an impact with the cabinetry and backsplash so we used a cararra marble subway tile that we took all the way to the ceiling for maximum wow factor. In order to really beef up the cabinets we added a thick crown moulding to the top of the cabinets. In order to break up all of the white cabinetry we added an island in Peppercorn by Sherwin Williams. We love the way it really pops in the space.

Lighting is always a really critical element in all of the spaces we design and we wanted to choose lighting that hinted at the farmhouse style without being too much. We chose farmhouse pendants over the island in a dark grey, almost galvanized metal looking finish and a gorgeous iron statement chandelier over the dining table.

The client also wanted to included some open shelving so we added some rustic reclaimed wood shelves with iron brackets right next to the built-in refrigerator. The clients love to entertain friends and family so we included professional grade appliances.
