Country kitchens

An archway over the stone sink serves as a focal point for this Tuscan kitchen while also providing the room plenty of natural light. Recessed lights, undercabinet lighting and wrought iron chandeliers add extra illumination.

Country comes to the city in this condo kitchen. Buttery yellow cabinetry with cathedral panel doors and open shelving units make the space warm and welcoming. The checkerboard tile backsplash evokes farmhouse appeal.

With a Wolf range against the wall and a cooktop on the lower level of the island, this country kitchen calls for two range hoods. The mix of copper and stainless steel, as well as the dark and light cabinets and two shades of granite, help to create an unfitted, historical look.

The stained oak island with inset white farm sink and chandelier lighting fixture give this restored kitchen a look in keeping with the historic home. White, painted beaded inset cabinetry features turned posts and metallic knobs and pulls.

A cooktop alcove with custom brick surround is perfectly positioned in this curved kitchen: The sink and expansive countertop are directly behind the cooking station, with plenty of light coming from the overhead skylight.

Natural materials such as the stone floor, ceramic tile countertops and brick hearth create a connection to the outdoors. The floral tile border, decorative baskets and Shaker style cabinet doors add simple country style.

Beadboard paneling, an apron sink, cream-colored cabinets and a butcher-block island with table room for three make this kitchen look airy and feel cozy.

Polished black granite kitchen countertops break up the white cabinets and highlight their leaded glass fronts.

Ceramic tiles with a colorful floral design offer a focal point in this white and yellow kitchen. The window treatment and serving pieces mirror the floral theme. Apothecary drawers, cup pulls and a cast-iron sink add vintage allure.

These white countertops, appliances, painted chairs and sink provide an elegant contrast to light wood cabinets and hardwood flooring.
