Colour Choices
Though classically, country kitchens would pull their colour scheme from the earthy wooden designs of the countertops, flooring and cabinets, mixed with the copper styling of the sink basin and hanging pans. In 2018/19 the country kitchen design will be defined by the use of nature-inspired colours, with greens and autumn reds and oranges spread throughout. Our range of Roma Shaker and Classic kitchen cabinets can bring a number of these nature-inspired colours to your space from our Duck Egg Blue to Sage Green.
Stone Flooring
Not always the most practical flooring, due to its hard surface and cold feel, stone flooring is a staple of the classic country kitchen. And with underfloor heating, you can remove at least one of those drawbacks. Stone flooring again provides that rooting in nature and the earth that all country kitchens require, be it tumbled limestone or sleeker slate with crisp cut edges, all giving a grounded rustic feel to your kitchen
The Kitchen Island
The kitchen island has long been associated with the country kitchen, and the traditional image of the family sat around it, eating freshly collected eggs, laid that morning, or eating cereal with fresh milk from the cows on the farm. Now you might not have a farm at your city centre apartment, but that doesn’t mean you can’t create that perfect country kitchen feeling. And the kitchen island is the ideal way to add that statement and feel to your home while giving you a practical addition which inspires the family to gather together and sit down to have breakfast.
Hanging Storage
Often finding storage for all your kitchen accessories can be difficult, with you never feeling like there’s enough space in your kitchen cabinets and draws, but that’s where the classic country kitchen storage solution can help. Hanging storage allows you to easily make the most of that above the head space, that otherwise goes unused, from hanging your sophisticated copper-bottomed pots and pans to a place for all your tea towels to go or even somewhere for that mad collection of mugs you have to hang, ready for making that perfect cuppa’ when you get home from a long day at work.
Adding Antique Style Detail
To create a classic country kitchen for your home you need to ensure you have a range of antique and traditional stylings. But you don’t have to head for the auction house or antique markets, as you can get that traditional feel from brand new appliances and features. Here at the Kitchen Warehouse, we have a range of Solid Oak, Roma Shaker and Roma Classic kitchen units which all provide a classic antiqued style to your kitchen.
