Designing compatible modern kitchens for historic houses can be a challenge. The owners of this Chicago Bungalow more than rose to the challenge! They preserved and restored the original white subway tile wainscot and hardwood floor while adding new cabinets, countertops, appliances, and a reproduction green subway tile backsplash. It feels clean and contemporary while being totally at home in the historic 1920’s house. Designing compatible kitchens and baths for houses of all periods and styles is covered in depth in Chapter 3 of Restoring Your Historic House. Photo by Dave Clough Photography.
Kitchen design for historic houses is covered in depth in Restoring Your Historic House, The Comprehensive Guide for Homeowners. The kitchen shown here is presented as an example project showing all the steps between before and after in photos and drawings. Whether your house is Colonial era, Victorian era, 20th Century, or somewhere in between, there are ways to create a functional modern kitchen that still feels related to the rest of the house.
