Country Kitchen Designs

If you’re looking for colours that are natural and subdued with a rustic textural quality thrown in with the use of wood, iron and stone, with all these traits in a kitchen gets you an English country kitchen. I know that the English country kitchen is an interpretation of more of that traditional and old-world look, the look in my opinion that is what you call comfortable and a relaxed style.

Kitchens in large country houses would originally have been made onsite, as a solid run of cupboards — not individual cupboards, fitted together as they are today. The aim, when designing the perfect country home  is to make it look as though it could have been crafted in one piece.

If you want your kitchen to say country, you'll probably need to reinvent a few things in the space. That's sort of a requirement for the style meant to embody warmth and nostalgia. In other words, Formica's out and distressed wood salvaged from an old farmhouse is in. You can use it to create a great kitchen table or island and shelves. For lighting, you want big open windows drawing in that natural light.

You can't go wrong with roosters, ducks or geese at a country home. But no need to have them squawking in the backyard. For a style that also brings nature indoors, look for them glazed on platters or painted on coffee mugs. Then display them on wooden shelves coated in milk-paint.

Whats going on?

Like with every kitchen a centre piece is critical part of your kitchen design. It will be almost like the heart of your kitchen endless amount of activities, conversations social interactions will take place there; so its important to get it right! In a country kitchen you need to give it a rural earthy look so use warm colours with the occasional POP to make it all stick out. You want to have warm brown earthy colours then contrast them with background stone work. Nothing looks better.
