Oh hello, Taurus: You over there being down to earth, just keepin’ it real!? That sounds about right..
‘Fixed astrological signs like consistency and others appreciate your unshakable chill. Having Venus, the love goddess, as your patron planet makes people all the more comfortable around you. Just being in your presence is relaxing! You’re an earth sign, meaning you’re truly down to earth. Combine that with your status as one of the zodiac’s four fixed signs and you’re everyone’s go-to person for common sense advice and life hacks. You’re also remarkably calm even in the weirdest situations. The rest of us admire your ability to maintain your composure no matter what’s going on around you. Even if you don’t feel it on the inside, this sign makes you seem relaxed at all times.’ - My Domaine
(Now, more than ever) steady calm, kitchen spaces serve so many roles to so many different voices in our day. All the meals, breakfast coffee, making pasta with the kids, cocktails with a few friends, backyard bbq parties prep, school lunches, Sunday morning pancake breakfasts. It’s the space that’s most down to earth because it has no other choice to be. It serves all of those purposes in our lives that we take for granted. Dear Kitchens, WE LOVE YOU.
What I love most about the kitchen space boils down to 3 things: Overall material palette, Layout, and Eat-in Kitchen Built-ins. LOOKOUT BELOW!!!....
1//MATERIAL PALETTE
I couldn’t have a kitchen party without a plywood party! I gotta say, seeing kitchens that make basic building materials look extravagant always cheer me up :)))
Wooooie, is it getting hot in here?! Sizing up on a stone slab backsplash or a stunning tile backsplash & pairing with plywood (or light wood) cabinetry is THE PERFECT combination in my book.
2// LAYOUT
Whether you’re a peninsula, island, galley, or centered dining table type of house, there’s certainly benefits to all the above. What layout are you dreaming of these days ?
///3 EAT IN KITCHENS
For some reason, I’ve always been drawn like a magnet to the simultaneous coziness, efficiency & thoughtfulness that a built-in dining area brings to a home. Whether it’s capitalizing on an amazing window view, saving on square footage, or just a bonus area to your kitchen, this is the ultimate space for sitting down, relaxing, and realizing the full potential of your kitchen!
Now we gettin’ real fancy.
Hope you’ve enjoyed this down-to-earth journey through my brain in captivity. Looking forward to seeing you next post for some good times with Gemini :)
