1. Eye-catching copper and gray. Traditional copper lanterns set over a marble-topped kitchen island add an unexpected touch to this kitchen. Houzz readers also noted the beautiful trimwork and soothing green-gray wall color when saving this popular kitchen photo to their ideabooks.
2. Traditional tin tile and white. This unique tin-lined ceiling caught the eye of users who wanted a traditional twist in their kitchen. The mix of more contemporary fixtures and classic tin tiles may have been the initial draw, but the unique appliance layout and double island are just as inspiring.
3. Arched kitchen entryway. Open, clean and full of light, this kitchen has large windows and a patio view that made Houzzers fall in love with it. The arched entryway in particular was a subtle touch that made all the difference.
5. Handy storage for stovetop tools. Houzzers also loved this smart solution to loose utensils and tools. A few containers tucked neatly into a drawer keep things handy and tidy.
6. Dreamy kitchen window seat. This big window seat in soft grays and blues adds a dreamy, relaxing touch to this clean and warm kitchen. The built-in adds extra seating space without taking up too much square footage.
7. Updated breakfast nook. Another take on the traditional breakfast nook, this diner-style booth is great for quick and casual mealtimes. The modern upholstery ties in with the space's contemporary light fixtures and plastic bar stools.
8. Antiqued cabinets, traditional lighting. Bold but traditional island lighting made this kitchen particularly noteworthy. Houzzers also loved the antiqued cabinet glaze, contrasting green walls and warm granite counters.
9. Spacious and bright in Massachusetts. Another example with big over-island lighting, this spacious kitchen combines several design styles. Wide-plank floors, cane bar stools and Calacatta countertops blend contemporary, traditional and modern elements together seamlessly.
10. Superior skylight. A stunning skylight takes the place of any bold lighting fixtures in this kitchen. Combined with a crisp color palette, the natural light brightens the entire space, despite the dark flooring and countertops.
