Kamini was gracious to take us on tour...so over to K :)
------------
I wanted the Kitchen to be modern in terms of conveniences, but traditional in the things I use. The flooring is simple ceramic tile.
Modular kitchens though very functional are very clinical and boring. I added some of my favorite pottery dishes on top to bring in some color.
I have my mortar and pestle collection, my brass cookware collection, my ceramic spice jar collection and my measuring cup/spoon collection all side by side.
The backsplash is a very subdued gray and white but I added 2 handmade tiles from Seattle into it to remind me of the city I spent 23 years in.
The kitchen has everything we had in our US kitchen in terms of conveniences, but the traditional brass and copper ware I have, along with my pottery collection and the red ceramic tile flooring, bring in a touch of warmth to an otherwise clinic modular kitchen.
The red wooden shelf to hold some more dishes is another weekend DIY project.

ReplyDeleteand sorry for the super late reply to your comment on one of the posts on my blog. so much of coincidence that we have those 3 things in common - BARC, AECS, our introduction to the world via grandparents' kitchen and our love for FOOD! :D :D am still giggling about it. i don't blog regularly. it slipped out of my mind to reply to you. sorry again! and much love and hugs. would love to keep in touch :)
Have always been a fan of Kamini's design aesthetics. I love all the personal touches in her Kitchen- the stained glass doors, the antique brass pathrams. K- I had to look up what Laccadavian was! :)
ReplyDeleteI love how Kamini uses color. Such a lovely kitchen!
ReplyDeleteLovely space Kamini... Love all the colorful pottery pieces, the antique brass vessels ...

ReplyDeleteSuper Kitchen , my aspirations for a kitchen , tradition and modern mix , very very beautiful, in my years of updating my kitchen , I always hunted for a brass coffee filter and brass tiffin carrier , but never found anywhere that looks as great as yours , can I ask where you got them
