Tucked away in a cozy home in the suburbs, the kitchen belongs to a couple who loved to cook but didn't have the space to accommodate their needs. Enter host Josh Temple and his team of designers and contractors from the show House Crashers to create a rustic industrial kitchen that's equal parts functional and chic.
Upon first glance, the kitchen was dated and cramped, with cluttered countertops and a lack of storage space. But with a little imagination, the team saw the potential for a beautiful, modern kitchen with an industrial feel. The homeowners had specific requests for the design, including incorporating their love of cooking and entertaining, adding more counter space, and creating a focal point for the room.
To start, Josh and his team got to work creating a more open floor plan for the kitchen. They removed a wall that separated the space from the living room, instantly making the area feel more spacious and inviting. Next, they tackled the countertops, replacing the old laminate with sleek quartz that offered more space to work and prepare food.
The team then shifted their attention to the cabinets, opting for a mix of natural wood and metal finishes to achieve the rustic industrial look. They converted an unused pantry into a coffee bar, complete with floating shelves and a custom-made coffee station. The team even added a wine fridge and a built-in beer tap, fulfilling the homeowners' requirement for a space that was perfect for entertaining friends and family.
No modern kitchen would be complete without the latest appliances, and Josh and his team did not disappoint in that department. They upgraded the kitchen's old stove with a high-end range and installed a stunning stainless steel hood. They also replaced the old fridge with a brand new one that featured a built-in TV, adding a touch of entertainment to the kitchen experience.
Finally, to tie everything together and add a touch of personality, Josh and his team brought in some unique accessories and decor elements. From a custom-made rustic dining table to vintage-inspired light fixtures, every detail was thoughtfully selected to create the perfect balance between style and function.
The end result was a stunning rustic industrial kitchen that exceeded the homeowners' wildest dreams. With ample counter space, cutting-edge appliances, and a cozy, inviting atmosphere, this kitchen was truly a gem of the home. Thanks to Josh Temple and his team, the homeowners could now cook and entertain with ease, in a space that reflected their unique personality and style.
