Thorpe Kitchen
Interesting color to consider for nw back wall cabinets
provide open shelves on top in back wall with various jars to put flour, etc in?
Interesting color
All the existing uppers could be painted this blue with the new back wall of cabinets entirely this blue.
This style of kitchen cabinet front might go well with existing wood cabinets.
Any reason to add a door where the present pantry window is?
This brings up a question if it would be helpful to have a counter that a stool could be pulled up under to sit at at the counter and work?
The entire back wall could be wood to match existing cabinets like this with doors that open for work areas and various built in features ...Fridge with cabinet front to be concealed into this wood wall.
New cabinets like these plain white ones could be installed across the back of the kitchen in the existing pantry area. This would allow the existing wood cabinets to read more strongly and the new cabinets to be a contemporary infill.
This photo brings up the idea of doing a semi wall between the kitchen and the pantry. The fridge would be moved back into the secondary pantry area and a black metal partition could be added with windows above to partially screen all the work spaces in the pantry area.
Interesting idea to make the entire new back wall (north) glass like this.
An interesting thought to make the entire back wall the same wood as the existing cabinets, then make the cabinets across the back (Norht) white like this. Upper cabs with glass?
Note the back wall on this where the fridge is built into the back. A new flat front fridge could be installed and the doors as shown here could open and move back on each side exposing counter to work at. Note the color. An option is to make the back a color. Another thought is to put wood around the edges of new tile in the kitchen so that the tile is like an area rug in the kitchen. Then the back new built ins could be color coordinated the the tile
Interesting....this floor is not unlike the existing floor just a different finish...So continuing the living/dining wood floor treatment into the kitchen might look like this.
Note the back wall...A series of doors could screen the back area and slide open so that the back becomes part of the kitchen after the new cabinets and counters are installed. This is provided that screening of more busy work areas is needed.
Another concept is to provide a wall across the back to screen all that is behind...then install new cabinets, shelves work area and fridge behind the wall which would be in the center of the back like this with openings on each side. If of interest, this will be examined after scaled plan is completed.
Have the back wall look like this and the upper cabinet doors can open and slide back like tv cabinets exposing counter space for working and organizing small appliance and work areas like a baking area, chopping area etc.
Complete the back wall like this
