Kitchens that Spark

I believe that every room should have a spark... not an actual electrical spark that create fires, but something that catches and holds your attention.  This can be with an appliance, wall color, counter tops, or even small accessories.

Sparks will be different for everyone  so it doesn't matter if someone else doesn't see your room's spark, as long as you see it and smile.


This Kitchen comes from Big Chill, a company that was founded in Boulder, Colorado.  This uncle and nephew team transform 50's mid-century modern appliances into something that is updated and fresh for the new millennium.
I love that the Tiffany blue walls match all the appliances and range hood.  This is one of those sparks that will not appeal to everyone.   For me I would love to visit a house with this kitchen but I don't know about actually working and cooking in this kitchen everyday... it might be a little bright.





  The Decorologist found this photo and focused on the white cabinets, that was her spark... the spark for me in this kitchen is definitely the pop of fresh green walls.  I also really like the white accents in the cabinets and the wood detail over the window.





This kitchen from Art Factory, a made by hand company that does everything from cabinets to entry doors to pool tables.  This is a very rustic kitchen that to me sparks with the island counter top, both with its material and it's baseball diamond shape.  Does anyone else see the baseball influence in the chandelier? or is it just me?





This is an image from Campbells Refinishing.  To me this kitchen is sparking all over the place.
I am in love with the high gloss cabinetry.  This is a finish that most people are afraid to use almost anywhere. Kudos to these guys for being brave!

The second spark I love is the square island that has a small ledge surrounding it.  This is a unique touch that I haven't seen before.



Hello Sparking graphic art in the tile and surrounding the oven.  Though I am not a modern style person in my own home I am definitely having a huge spark attack in this kitchen.Thank you Deviant Art.com! You just made my day.
