Cottage kitchen design is one of the most popular and versatile styles. Cottage kitchen design has enjoyed extreme popularity for a long time because it combines simple sophistication with a sense of warmth and comfort while being very usable. Cottage kitchens are inviting, they draw people in from around the house to enjoy a cup of tea, a good conversation or a great home cooked meal. Cottage kitchen design is one of the favorite styles employed by the design team at Binns Kitchen + Bath. It represents a throw back to simpler times when families enjoyed spending time together and the kitchen was the center of household life. Binns has more than 50 years experience designing and installing cottage kitchens in Ontario and other parts of Canada and the US. The Hallmarks of Cottage Kitchen DesignUnlike modern kitchens full of chrome and glass, shiny surfaces, straight lines and appliances, cottage kitchen design encourages you to sit back, relax and take a load off for a while. White cabinets and traditional materials seem more wholesome and family oriented than all the bravado and efficiency in modern design. It's a cottage kitchen where you'd expect to find a mother and child baking cookies together, rather than a soccer mom rushing to prepare her family a quick meal between practices. The key to cottage kitchen design used by Binns designers is simplicity. It is the less is more idea of design. Natural materials like soapstone counters are common, and natural light is a vital element.
