Kitchenalia showcases the vast creative potential of vintage kitchenware- reclaimed furniture and upcycled accessories. Here is everything you need for furnishing and styling a kitchen with personality- panache and unique retro charm. Kitchenalia is an inspiring guide to putting together a unique and creative kitchen using vintage pots and pans- family treasures such as your grandmother s old scales- classic designs that have stood the test of time- retro-inspired and second-hand china and glass and reclaimed and reinvented surfaces and furniture. This book demonstrates that period pieces- whether retro utensils and gadgets- farmhouse furniture or salvaged surfaces- are the antithesis of the mass-produced modern alternatives and have a timeless integrity. Sourcing such items from flea markets and antiques fairs is a unique and rewarding way to kit out a kitchen. Vinny Lee first shows how three designers transform a modern fitted kitchen in very different ways- to demonstrate how easy it is to add a personal sense of style.The Kitchenalia Kitchen then showcases the key styles and themes that characterize this approach- including the Retro Kitchen- the Collector s Kitchen- the Reclaimed Kitchen and the Painted Kitchen. Kitchenalia Elements presents everything that can be used to get the look you want- from pans- crockery- storage tins and containers to furniture- surfaces and lighting. Packed with advice on sourcing- reinventing- repurposing and displaying- Kitchenalia is an inspiring and informative guide to creating a kitchen with heart and soul....
