Craftsman-style kitchens are defined by highly customized touches and beautiful materials. The Arts and Crafts movement began at the end of the 19th century in England. Due to the popularity of this style over the years, it has made it possible for homeowners to attain a Craftsman kitchen with many variations. The traditional Craftsman elements of low ceilings, dark wood have gravitated to brighter color schemes and open living spaces and a more contemporary style. Natural light, shaker cabinets and subway backsplash tile are still main style elements. A comfortable floor plan is always appealing for a growing, busy family.
The mixture of stained and painted wood is a feature of Craftsman style. Cabinet style, shaker, subway tile, hardwood floors, banquette seating. The additional height of the cabinets lends to the age and style of this Craftsman home.
This home has all the elements, from the large glass doors of the butlers pantry, to the tongue and groove ceiling and decorative vintage tile floor, and a striking vintage range and hood – our client went all out in this design and color.
Kitchen was designed around this “Big Blue” pantry, a much needed storage piece for our clients. As you can see the furniture feet detail was added to the toe-kick pf some of the cabinets which give the appearance of a free standing piece of furniture. The corbels on the mantel hood also are nice decorative feature of Craftsman style spaces.
Another one of our favorites, this space was designed with the tongue and groove painted ceiling as the number one thing on our clients wish list. The cabinetry being built and installed in true Craftsman style to the ceiling, with butcher block and the dark black granite countertops.
What was a dark and cramped kitchen turned light and bright with this traditional Craftsman kitchen. The honed black countertops create a striking contrast to the white custom beaded shaker cabinets and subway tile. The stained shelves and hood lean toward a timeless look, coordinating well with the antique pantry door and white oak floors. The lit glass cabinets and underlighting allow for easy storage and a beautiful night light in the evening.
With a few alterations to the cabinetry we were able to create a timeless Craftsman kitchen. By adding the wooden floating shelves, used in the past for crockery storage, etc., and heavy trim details create a refined upscale kitchen. The peninsula extension is balanced with heavy posts. The final touch was the simple vintage-style pendant lighting.
The mixture of paint colors, bright white and muted gray, chunky island post supports, farmhouse sink, casement windows, cabinet to ceiling, rustic flooring, column and beam elements create a classic craftsman style kitchen.
This whole house renovation stayed true interior and exterior Craftsman style, all cabinetry are shaker style, with dark granite countertops. The updated window grids keep with the age of the home. The white oak hardwood floors are a coordinating contrast to the cherry cabinets. The island post style and subway tile backsplash are timeless Craftsman details.

We worked with our clients to transform their outdated space into their dream kitchen. The oversized walnut island allows for entertaining a large crowd in this bright open room. The added storage in the design layout has a place for everything and keeps the family well organized. Imagine having a fantastic mudroom space like this for book bags, sports bags, shoes, and coats! The sitting corner will be a favorite comfy spot for Mom to relax as she starts and ends her day. The mixture of walnut wood elements in the island and the ceiling beams give a rustic, modern Craftsman style to this wonderful kitchen area. Happy entertaining, all!
Our clients had outgrown their kitchen/laundry space and had a rough idea of how to expand their home. Our team worked closely with them to design a new layout that would convert a covered carport area into their new kitchen, mudroom and powder room. The addition of these bright open spaces has already changed how this wonderful family functions on a daily basis, especially with the addition of a mudroom and storage cubbies for all the kids. A fantastic Craftsman transformation!
This busy family needed a kitchen that was functional for the whole family. The large island allows for plenty of seating! From what was once two separate rooms turned into a custom dream with a butler’s pantry/buffet, glass cabinets, and open concept, Craftsman design for living and dining. The dark granite, natural stone island, white cabinetry, and heavily trimmed column support give balance to the room. We were able to match the old and new hardwood floors for a seamless look.
This addition was designed with a major emphasis on the true original Craftsman style of the home. The mixture of heavy, warm wood, shaker cabinets and hardware are all traditional elements of a rustic Craftsman kitchen.
Our clients needed a kitchen update with custom features. The subway tile, cabinetry, heavy trim, hardwood floors, windows, and fixtures are true Craftsman style. The addition of a bay window and a garage storage cabinet for a Kitchenaid mixer make this kitchen beautiful and functional. The shallow cabinet storage for cleaning supplies and mail center at the side of the fridge brought this Pinterest idea for a functional kitchen to reality.
