I'm so excited to share my Top 15 Designer Kitchen Ideas to elevate your space and make it your favorite room in the house! Let me know in the comments which tip is your favorite. I personally have several, lol! And stay tuned because in the next few months I'll be sharing my Kitchen Refresh on our channel using lots of today's tips!🥰 Cheers Design Lovers! Xo- Ashley
My kitchen island extension is a bar cart that is usually in place beside my stove, but then moves over to the table for serving food if there's a need. That's all I have room for, and it works really well.
Love my kitchen ceiling beam. It's black against a white background. The pop adds a little drama without overwhelming, and brings the various black elements of my kitchen together.
The BEST PRESENTATION of kitchen designs !!! Focused on gorgeous variety of designer's inspiration and tradition . 👏👏👏🤔❤️👍
Yay! I'm so glad you liked it!!
I love how Ashley shows her home and different styles. Not just show a bunch of pictures and act like she knows what she’s talking about.
Thank you so much for watching!!
your comment is funny ...its obvious that she is highly educated in this field! She is an interior designer 🥇
The sinks in stone were very spectacular! I never saw something like the one in marble, it’s beautiful.
So beautiful!!!!!
I have bought (as a temporary feature) a small marble tray where I keep a soap dispenser and a sponge. Can’t wait to dispose it because dirt gets into all seams and I have regularly waist my time on cleaning the tray. Dread to imagine to do it for sink.
@@ninaotan7811 Maybe if it is carved in one piece of marble with no seams at all, it’s less problematic.
@@YayaBolender Marble is porous, therefore it's a terrible material for countertops, let alone a sink. Looks beautiful on picture but would be horrible to maintain. The only situation where it may be okay is in some mansions with 2 kitchens - hidden one for actual cooking and one in the open space for making tea and coffee. Actually, even in this case it wouldn't really work because coffee, tea, wine etc. would stain the marble...
This was a great video-I love these ideas-especially the counter hutch idea. I’ve heard so many say that open shelving, although attractive, is a nightmare to keep clean. I feel like the hutch with glass doors solves this problem. You can display your pretty things, but without the constant cleaning. I definitely want to incorporate this into my kitchen remodel.
I love that one too!!! Such a charming detail ❤️ thanks so much for watching!
Island extension, very practical: Hutch style, well-complements the kitchen design in most cases
I totally agree! Thanks for watching!
You always use the most majestic images in your videos...elegant, cozy and just perfect.
What a sweet comment! Thank you so much and thanks for watching! ❤️
First of all.. great photos with well narrated highlights. For me it's always the hard surfaces and how they anchor the spaces, but this makes me love the on counter cabinets
Thank you! And I couldn’t agree more, beautiful hard surface choices really do make a room sing! Thanks for watching!❤️
Can’t wait to see the changes to your kitchen! So many things to love these days. I think for me, it would be several things that prob fall into the category of layering. All of the details combined to create the WOW. First the little ceiling fixtures instead of recessed. Different cabinet door profiles that work together as well as combining stain and paint. I’m really in love with the same counter stone and backsplash material and mixing counter edges. You have me thinking about the stone sinks now. Great content as always !
Oh, yes!! I love all of those as well, especially using a grid of flush mount light fixtures instead of recessed cans! That's a feature I've loved using in clients homes. Thanks for watching!
I am already icorporating hutch cabinets, pulling the base cabs firwRd to make the countertops 30" instead of 25" deep and raising them an inch, and having swing out lightweight wood with drop down legs to give more prep space to my small galley kitchen. Also motion detecting lighting to lower cabinets converted to drawers and pullouts.
Those all sound like great ideas!!! I'm doing something similar to your swing out prep countertop in an upcoming renovation and I can't wait! It's such a great way to maximize space and function❤️
This is spot on! The variety you have shown, draws you in! I like them all. My top three; 1-end of the island, 2-faucet, 3-hutch. I am also planning on that (horizon hutch project) in the near future. However, I need to source the wood, from a mill. Looking forward to your kitchen reveal as well. I also loved that you shared an update from a former client, that only involved paint. That is a real tribute to your initial decorating skill! Bravo!
Can't choose one... so fabulous all of them! thanks Ashley
I've been planning a kitchen remodel for a while now. I'm definitely leaning towards French Country style. I plan on incorporating a natural stone wall, wooden beams, hutch style uppers with glass doors and painted cabinets. I'm still undecided on sink, counter tops, and pantry. Thanks for sharing this! 💯 ❣️
I love enjoy the clip of the exposed pantry !!!!!! Very beautiful Thank you the video was great!
Love all ideas. I especially like exposed pantry and built in hutch. Can’t wait to see your kitchen update!
Wow, this video is brilliantly done! Thank you, loved seeing all the different ideas
Ok, so now I just want to rip my kitchen apart...or move! Thanks for such great ideas - my favorite is incorporating that European look into our box style kitchens. So easy to add character if you just give attention to the little details!
I loved them all. I am in the design phase of my new kitchen. I started off with buying a wine red BLuestar range. I am going from there and will be incorporating some of the beautiful ideas you shared today. Will be changing the door to my butler's pantry with a glass door!
You talk about every colour n style in one video 😮 it's realy very helpful n easy to new house builder thx 😊
I’m so glad you found it helpful! Thanks for watching❤️
Awesome ideas. I wish I had the budget to bevel the edges in my kitchen. It’s the only thing I wish I had done differently.
Absolutely fantastic video! Thanks for sharing
Thank you so much for watching!!
I loved all of it. Your examples were stunning.
Thank you Stephanie! I always appreciate your sweet comments! ❤️❤️❤️
This was fabulous amazing design and decor ideas! Ashley you always deliver 🏆🏆🏆💓
Too sweet, thank you so much for watching! ❤️
So very well done!!! Both the creative design and the presentation!
Thank you!!! ❤️
Hello Ashley! Great ideas - thank you for sharing! I am also excited about renovating an open space 1 bedroom apartment, and thought about adding faux beams on the ceiling that is currently painted in stucco white over metal tracks | | | | all across the ceilings throughout the apartment. Though I am only applying the faux beams in part of the open space of the living area, and to create a separation to the kitchen and front entry. I'll have to take pictures of the before after! Stay blessed and inspired!
So glad you’re redoing your kitchen.
Me too!!! I'm so excited!
Sophisticated image choices ✅
Thank you!
I absolutely love this video I have to say I would love to add the stone to a wall or backsplash or both in my kitchen ❤
Thank you so much, and same!!! I just love how much texture and organic interest it adds!
Wowza. Prettiest kitchen examples ever.
Thank you! 😊
I love all the ideas you have presented ARE AMAZING🎉 but IF i had to choose 3 /island, hutch on counter cabinets , metal hardware. Thank you Ashley love all your tips i'll be watching your K.R.🎉👍🌼
Definitely need an elegant, timeless glass element to give your kitchen some sparkle. Since my kitchen is small, I went with floating shelves where I placed fancy storage containers for things like nuts, seeds and garlic. It cleared up counter space and still left the kitchen with an open airy vibe. My upper cabinets were partially blocking views out the kitchen window. Not only are the decorative jars functional, but they add just the right amount of sparkle without looking like clutter.
How to clean the greasy built up on the stone wall in the kitchen? 😂
Good question! I'm thinking this feature might be best on an accent wall, not above the cooking surface!
I love, and want to do the rough cut stone backsplash to replace the current one. I just have to find who does that in my area. All the ideas were fun to look at. Ill be looking forward to seeing your kitchen refresh !
Yes!!! And a great stone mason is a MUST for that one for sure! I love that one too! Thanks for watching! ❤️❤️❤️
I notice how shallow the eating area is where you are sitting. It appears impossible for you to turn around and sit with your legs under the overhang, which seems like poor planning to me. So although there’s 3 bar stools, how many people can actually sit there comfortably?
And at 13:37, you mentioned “chromone bolts”? What are they? I’ve never heard of them before.
Lastly, how difficult will the rock walls or backsplash be to keep clean on a daily basis? It looks great but when you’re cooking and grease and dust get on it, isn’t it easier to clean a smooth surface than a rough textured surface? Some things sound better than the day to day reality. Of course, I guess if you can afford it you probably have a cleaning staff to take care of the cleaning so it doesn’t matter. But for a 76 year old grandmother like me, I want something that I’m not going to have to scrub my knuckles raw on every time I cook. So I think I’ll pass on this idea. Looks pretty, though.
Beautiful examples 😍
Thank you!! 😃
Ashley, thank you for sharing your incredible talent and wealth of knowledge with us. Your videos are always informative and inspiring. Your presentation skills genuine and there is always a beautiful essence of peacefulness. You may have addressed this in a video that I have missed……where are you putting microwaves, kitchen aid mixers, food processors, toasters ? Especially when you have a smaller kitchen.
Beautiful choices
Thank you!! Happy Sunday ❤️
Wonderful video- and so well done with the images. I really would have a hard time to say which of the elements I prefer. I suppose I do like the idea of the layers in general (so multiple textures- whether two kinds of paint for cabinets , two different countertop materials etc). I love very much the creative countertop edges. I am planning to use this element in my kitchen renovation (and just finished doing this for my coffee table renovation- had a slate slab cut and included detailed edge which I would like to use in kitchen). I have a kitchen that is open to the living room and dining area (loft like)- and this great space has windows from counter level to ceiling across the whole way around the room- so no possibility of upper cabinets anywhere (think continuous windows wrapping all the way around room. It also has huge stone cut squares that act as a ledge under the windows all the way around (actually these windows wrap around the entire top floor of house). This leaves me only one wall in kitchen area that is partitioned and so can have cabinets. Because the views around the rest of the room are breathtaking- I could not have a built- in cabinet wall to store fridge/stove etc. I needed to have something magnificent on the 'one' wall without windows. So I did buy an antique hutch with metal mesh cupboards- almost 3 meters tall. So it made designing the place to house fridge and stove tricky...but well worth figuring out how to push that constraint! That said- it seems that my kitchen has all the layer elements coming together naturally- huge wood beams in ceiling- stone walls & ledges- and so when I incorporate more of the details on your list- I am hoping it will be quite something! :)
Amazing!!
Great advices!
Love your style
I need this … ready to do my kitchen .
Me too!!! I've been collecting ideas and inspo for months! We're not doing a major reno, just a little update, but it will make sure a big difference. Can't wait to share it on the channel!
@@ashleychilders I can’t wait to watch it !!!
All these kitchen ideas are beautiful and really come down to personal style, budget and space. The only thing I would comment on is from a functional point of view, the bevelled edges of a countertop should be smooth. Grease dust etc. would be so hard to clean if there are so many vertical and horizontal lines. Thanks for the inspiration. 🥰🇨🇦
Thanks so much for watching!
I love having a bowl of fresh fruit for a pop of color. My color of choice is yellow, so I go with bananas and lemons. Whatever doesn't have to be refrigerated.
We are building a home and I am designing and building my kitchen cabinets. I also have a planned scullery plus a pantry. I found it interesting that I had already incorporated all of the ideas you mentioned in my build. Yes, I am building each cabinet with it's intended use in mind. I am excited to know that I will have a designer kitchen without the designer price tag.
That sounds awesome!!! Your kitchen will be beautiful and functional! Good luck with the home build, it's such a fun process!
Thanks 🦋
Wow. Thanks for so many great ideas.
I understand what you mean about the open pantry being controversial. I’m pretty neat, but I don’t think I like that idea. Or open shelves in the kitchen. I always think about if I get a fly in the house. I’d have to re-wash everything.
Love your videos and just subscribed!
Make sure you do a hideaway trash can that pulls out of a cabinet for convenience.
Im going to vote a BIG heck NO on the exposed pantry lol - I have 3 kids, 3 pets and no way would I want to add the stress of keeping that perfect - Maybe when the kids move out - stil not even sure I'd want to do it then!
Speaking of extensions.. that hair.. wow, bella
I am on the right track.
Beautiful video Ashley. Feeling inspired though most of these items cost a fortune
I'm glad you feel inspired! I'm hopeful to use a few of the ideas in our kitchen refresh and will certainly be on a budget! I'll share the whole process on the channel. Thanks so much for watching!
Another great video! I love the kitchen with the dark-stained wood hutch and creamy uppers and taupe lowers and vent hood with the brass picture rail over it! Is this one you designed and I can see more of it on your website?
Lots of the design ideas are for the look but not practical. You’ll know if you are really cooking in your kitchen.
Rough cut stone backsplash 🤔 that's hard no.
Thank you for the heads up!
everything is just delicious
I am now encouraged to update my kitchen and breakfast room by painting the walls, and cannot figure out what would be a good color. The well made cabinets are white, the countertop is sage green, granite and my walls are a soft yellow. The foors are colonial yellow pine. Do you have any suggestions Ashley?
I love exposed beams especially when they were part of the original design of the house. I do wonder though if this resurgence of adding them everywhere will end up making the room look passé or so typically 2023 ish. Kind of like the all white kitchens came and went.
There are so many amazing old homes in Europe with beams (all structural of course) but I think the depth and architectural character they add are timeless. Although, I do think they should be used sparingly throughout a home for sure. Thanks so much for watching!
Rough cut stone in a kitchen? Hope you have a way to clean that ... unless you don't cook ... I love the hutch style cabinetry!
Ashley’s monthly door dash bill must be astronomical.
I will change plumbing fixture. Wish I could get rid of the over the stove microwave…… maybe one day.
I'm looking for new plumbing fixtures too, there's so many beautiful options out there, and we have our microwave hidden in a cabinet! Thanks for watching ❤️
My kitchen is small . How can add more storage?
Yep, I knew it. It wouldn't be long and people would be getting rid of those floating shelves. 😂
There's a reason cabinets with doors were invented. It's to keep the dust off of your stuff.
All I see with anything open shelving is more space for dust to collect.
It really isn’t a big deal. Having an all white kitchen is more work.
I have been to several tile and granite places. No one can help me with the rough stone backsplash. Who can do this ?
For sure a stone mason! Our stone mason does all the stonework on the exterior and interior of the homes we design+build. Good luck!
Everything in your kitchen seems like a trend. Since you will be adding a hutch are you gonna do more of timeless piece? All the pics you showed are beautiful. I guess the takeaway is to do timeless from the get go otherwise we will always be dreaming with the next big thing.
My kitchen is pretty classic. Subway tiles, plaster hood, classic marble countertops, warm gray cabinetry. All those items are timeless. But we’ve lived in our home for 7 years now and I just want a little refresh. Nothing major. Just adding the hutch shelving, repainting the cabinetry, add new handmade tile that I’ve fallen in love with and possibly doing new plumbing fixtures (depending on budget). We spend so much time in this room that I’m just ready for a little change. 🤎🤎
@@ashleychilders. Ooff….sounds like it’s gonna be nice!
That range hood in your kitchen is partially blocking the view out your kitchen window from the vantage point where the video is being recorded.
餐桌太寬大，廚房變小了❤
Rough cut stone for backsplash area is a nightmare to clean!!!
Totally understandable!
@@ashleychilders That being said, I LOVE your designs.
Simple..redo you kitchen every year...
Raked edge? That's probably hard to clean...
It’s mostly likely that Wendy could find 20 dollars to buy/order a bottle and she most likely has friends that will send her/give money here and there,rich people broke is different than poor people broke….. I see people around that is broke to pay bills etc yet find money to support their habits
Not a fan of range hoods, especially in smaller kitchens. They are just too weighty, and don't really add anything as a decor element.
Those edges will be outdated in no time
Some of those counter type edges are nothing but catch- alls for dirt and food crumbs.
These kitchens are harmonious and beautiful, yet becoming so predictable and therefore boring and unoriginal. Social Media teaches us, and trains our eyes, which is great, but at the same time removes freshness and discovery from our lives. This design, unfortunately, is for people who have the money to buy anything they want. So they buy anything to make sure they are not like the rest of us. A middle American wouldn't be able to afford even half of that kitchen, and the top 1% removes materials from the environment to purchase another trendy thing every 10 years. People do whatever you want in your homes so that you are happy. You don't have to be like the rest or like the 1%. Utilize harmonious designs, natural materials (if you can afford them), use colors you enjoy, and pay attention to details, but don't follow these trends. No matter how beautiful these kitchens are, they will become dated, just like the expensive kitchens and bathrooms of the early 2000s and 2010s. Your 1990s kitchen can be updated, invest in things that you don't already have like wallpaper, art, wooden table, safer appliances, but geez don't rip out your kitchens just to look like these kitchens, which will become outdated too.
Rough cut stone is a HORRIBLE design choice for kitchens! Impossible to clean. The kitchen is the LAST place it should be!
I agree. Someone installed brick on some of my kitchen walls and it is horrible, impossible to clean. I hate it.
Agreed!
Beautifully impractical kitchens for people who never cook. Seriously? porous stone in a kitchen? Yeah try and live with that after a couple years.
If you are like me and own “only” a 1344sqf house and do at least some cooking in it, then these suggestions are not for you.
No rough stones
No open shelving (we poor people need shelving to stuff in everything we need and not for decoration)
Extend the countertop - into the living room?
Range hood - no space
Exposed pantry - come again?
Ok you get my point
An exposed pantry must be one of the dumbest designer ideas ever...
Skirted cabinetry makes a kitchen look cheap and dated.
Several great ideas and Several terrible ideas. Let’s be honest 😇
It’s so annoying when Americans use the British term “bespoke” incorrectly to make themselves sound more sophisticated. Historically, when a person went to their tailor to order a suit they would speak for a fabric. So that fabric would bespoken for. As for why it’s being used in advertising? Because the term is not protected, at least in the U.S. and it makes products sound more luxurious and specialized than they are.
Oh, bother!🙄
Who cares. Just enjoy the video.
I’m always telling my husband how I hate the way the British people massacres the English language 😂 they pronounce the words so weird. Lol
Hello. This is her channel and ideas i like so much. You are bothersome and boring .
Damn Americans! They were too busy whilst kicking your derrière twice then saving your derrière twice to learn any sophistication. Long live the King!😜
