It is no secret that we fall a little. Regardless of whether it is an aesthetic cider aesthetics in mid-August or pre-ordered barn coats from our chaise lounge on the Laborous Day Vacay that you could say that summer is just a countdown to the main event.
And there is no place in the house that comes to life. Regardless of whether it is amazed on the stove or something in the oven, the kitchen is inevitably intertwined with the beloved rituals of the season. To help you reach you at most comfortably, you should join together up to one or some of these autumn kitchen trends.
Cast iron pan walls
We have always been an advocate of the inclusion of art in a kitchen-a small oil landscape here, the silhouette of a child there-but lately we have been seeing more and more kitchens with an impressive exhibition of cast iron along a single wall and we love the graphic blow that offers this type of arrangement that ensures a frequent portion of practicability. Here the homeowner of Alabama, Anthony Brewington, Proof of Concept provides a collection that took him for years to accumulate. (PSST: You will see another great example in the August/September edition of seeing Country life in the home of designer Nathan Turner.)
Rockingham (or Bennington) ceramic
In recent years, splattered goods and sponsors have dominated the Country tabletop, and this pottery style seems to be the next incarnation of this aesthetic tendency. Rockingham Ware was produced in 1745 by Yorkshires Swinton-Keramik and is known for its spotty brown glaze-one look, which is achieved by diving from the biscuit-dry-damped pottery dipped with a manganese. (In the United States, it is sometimes generally referred to as Bennington Pottery because this Vermont company produced large amounts of styles in the style in the mid-19th century, but it has been produced nationwide until well into the 1900s.) Many vintage pieces are not becoming the country, which has so far made it difficult but more affordable. Unmarked shells and plates usually cost 30 to 60 US dollars, with larger parts of up to $ 100.
Copper, copper, copper
Regardless of whether it is an explanation for ventilation hood, a pretty patinated collection, trailer lights or cabinet hardware, this warm finish has been giving a serious brass a serious run for your money recently. (Don't miss the pretty, broken copper hood in this Texas cuisine designed by Claire Zinneck.) Our love for the rosy gold material is nothing new. Copper cookware can be traced back for centuries, a copper -pot collection that adorns the first edition of Country lifeAnd the culinary icon Julia Child equipped her house in Massachusetts with pretty French copper pots that hung on a blue painted pegboard.
Pot rods
Well, all this copper has to go somewhere. Nothing serves as a functional focus as in this centuries -old kitchen dumbbell that can be hung on a wall (usually above the stove, normally) or on the ceiling (often above an island). Pop racks also free the precious cabinet room and correspond to the very English country kitchen aesthetics.
Traditional lamps
The task lighting is okay and good, but nothing transforms the kitchen into a “room” like the warm glow of a table lamp. Country life Designer Maribeth Jones spent this look in her sunny yellow kitchen (above) and did not look back. “We are too often hung up to pursue the” rules “of the kitchen design,” she says. “In every other corner of her house, the ambience of the lamp light calls for your kitchen? I have an antique Tole lamp in our – I love every apology for something old and because it has no fabric tone, I don't have to worry about kitchen grime. “Bonus: You can easily give this idea a test drive with a low order by moving a small lamp to your kitchen for a few days and seeing how your cooking room drives up.
Brick floor
Although stroked hardwoods are still enjoying a well-deserved moment, brick floors and brick tiles dive in more and more designer projects in kitchens and mudrooms and it is easy to see why. Brick delivers an ancient character of the ground and is a particularly good way to give heat to a purely white kitchen.
