CANADIAN CRAFTSMANSHIP AND ITALIAN AESTHETICS AT THEIR FINEST
A traditional kitchen is known for its grandiosity and rustic charm. Vintage pieces are an excellent way to achieve this aesthetic. Of course, practicality is also an important factor. How to incorporate vintage pieces in a traditional kitchen without compromising on utility? Nima Kitchens, leading kitchen manufacturers in Vaughan, lays out five ways you can do so today without going overboard on decor.
If you have a traditional kitchen featuring a predominantly neutral color palette, go for antique copper pots and pans for a vintage touch. These are highly practical yet visually striking, so make sure to display them in the open where it contrasts with the light hues of the kitchen. To go all out, install some reclaimed wooden beams for a rustic touch.
Ditch the small accents and decor for a major vintage makeover with a butcher block kitchen island, or go for classy cabinetry with a glazed finish. The glazed finish makes it easy to maintain and keeps the cabinets shining. Choose a subtle raised panel cabinet or go all out with museum-style pieces, although they can be hard to find.
Bring warmth and character to your kitchen with the added advantage of portability with vintage seating. Vintage stools look right at home with a classy kitchen island. If you want a coffee nook, add an old armchair or loveseat to an unused corner.
Don’t have the space for large vintage or furniture pieces? Here’s where the right lighting can help. Light up your space with sconces to give that classic vintage vibe to the kitchen space. Add wooden cabinetry with an antique brass finish to maximize the effect of the lighting. Alternatively, decorate open shelving with antique pieces and highlight them with warm lighting.
Vignettes are a beautiful addition to any kitchen space. Decorate your open shelves with an array of vignettes, porcelain bowls, or earthenware to create an aesthetic vintage nook. Vignettes also go along well with copper cookware and decor, so don’t be afraid to experiment.
