Kitchen Metal Backsplashes Ceiling Lighting Cooktops Light Hardwood Floors Design Photos and Ideas

A central fireplace, designed as a minimal, gray block and visible from both sides, subtly separates the living and dining zones.
The kitchen features hacked IKEA cabinets—Brit and Daniel built custom fronts and side panels out of Valchromat, a recycled engineered wood. The cabinets are topped with black steel, which extends up the wall as backsplash. “We wanted to find an inexpensive way of doing a really terrific kitchen,” says Daniel. “The metal, which is a cold-rolled sheet of blackened steel, is a unique material that will develop a patina over time, but will also be super durable—and again, very cost effective.”
