This combined living room and kitchen space has a very practical planning and layout, with a simple yet elegant look. I love the little round dining table in front of the window, which contrasts so nicely with the light wood of the flooring and the grey of the kitchen cabinet fronts.  

The living area has been placed on the other side of the kitchen island, and the TV has been built into the island itself. When the TV is not in use, it can be lowered into the kitchen module, which is such a nice touch.

Another beautiful kitchen project done by Nordiska Kök, In a Stockholm apartment this time. They have teamed up with Alexandra Ogonowski to create a kitchen that joins modern Scandinavian and traditional Asian elements in a harmonious balance of colors, shapes and materials.

The kitchen island in warm, stained oak and Jura limestone was inspired by the Japanese teppanyaki grills where chefs entertain guests with their craft and takes a central role in the layout of the space. By lowering one side of the island for the seating, there is no need for bar stools. 

The two-tone kitchen materials create a harmonious blend of soft colors, tones and textures for a timeless yet modern kitchen. The material of the countertop and backsplash also comes back in the floating shelf with the stone brackets, for an elegant effect.

Swedish Artilleriet have teamed up with Tre Sekel to design a kitchen, built with the idea of the kitchen being a piece of furniture that is tactile without handles. It’s a very simple design where nothing is hidden and all parts of the construction are visible to its user.

The kitchen is built by local craftsmen in Sweden at Tre Sekel and I love the combination of the dark wood and limestone countertop which matches perfectly with the tiles and wall treatment in this stunning space. As per usual, their photos are styled to perfection as well.
