Ms. Stripes’ Kitchen

I must say, this project for Ms. Stripes is going really well. Elwin and I are just loving getting back into our old pattern of working together, and we’ve found her so easy-going as a client. It’s really starting to make me wonder what is going on at school because I talked to Nibbles again the other day and she is still so down on Ms. Stripes. Elwin and I have been talking and we’re thinking that somehow we have to get to the bottom of this.

Anyway, on to the fun stuff! Ms. Stripes says she loves to cook and entertain. The thing is, she has a dining room so she said that even though she wanted an eat-in kitchen, she wasn’t looking for anything overly formal. She said a casual space where she could hang out and enjoy coffee with her friends (funny, Sparky SWEARS that it is absolutely inconceivable that Ms. Stripes has any friends), but with plenty of workspace for experimenting with new recipes.

We used the Bamboo Print Wallpaper and the Golden Hardwood Flooring to create a light, airy feel. We added a couple of stainless steel appliances as well as a Culinary Cat Counter, and an island where Ms. Stripes could work while her friends sampled her dishes. We used some items from the 70’s theme to tie into the golden tones of the flooring and walls and a couple of Golden Barstools complemented the island perfectly. Instead of giving her a formal dining table, we designed a relaxed eating area by using the Avante Condo Coffee Table. And because Ms. Stripes said she enjoys having coffee with her friends we installed her very own Espresso Yourself Station in the corner.
