Steal This Look: A Rustic Modern Kitchen in the Netherlands
0 Share
Here’s a kitchen we love that never gets old:
At Jan de Jong Interieur in Leeuwarden in the Netherlands, designer Christien Starkenburg built out a modern kitchen with a white, charcoal, and pale gray palette with a rustic curtained sink. Here, we dig into matched and similar sources to re-create the look, as fresh today as when we first spotted it.
Above: A table by Starkenburg’s furniture company SlowWood in the foreground.Above: The small kitchen counter has handmade tile, custom cabinetry, concrete counters, and a linen curtain.Above: A pale blue-gray tiled backsplash.Above: The curtain conceals the under-sink area and softens the otherwise hard-edged space.
