Let There Be Light

The kitchen in the house we are planning faces south.

I love a kitchen flooded with natural light so

we have decided to eliminate the upper cabinets

and in their place create a wall of windows.

We have also included a sizable pantry in the plan

to compensate for the lost storage.

We won't use mullioned windows since they

are such a pane/pain to wash and because

we want an unobstructed view.

I do love the way they look in this kitchen though.

I also love the blue cabinetry.

I really love when the windows are

right down to the counter tops.

I don't know if that's possible since the

outlets need to go somewhere.

I love the lamp in the corner of this kitchen.

Not having upper cabinets makes that possible.

I think this kitchen is lovely.

I said before though, that we will go light

on the tile, so this kitchen is probably not

in our future.

I love the fun lighting in this kitchen.

How high do you suppose the ceilings are?

The plans we are working on have standard 8 ft. ceilings.

I may change that.

The windows will most definitely open.

I do love a breeze coming through the kitchen.

On the opposite side of the wall of windows,

is where the dining room will be located.

There will be a large window there as well so we

can capture a nice breeze through the house.
