1 PETITE SPACE STRATEGY
High-Impact Woodwork
After making tweaks to the room's footprint (including removing a bulky unused chimney in the corner), Maribeth maximized charm with vibrant Shaker-style cabinets and a tall 6-foot 8-inch wood-paneled backsplash. The chimney removal allowed for custom cabinetry, complete with plate racks and open shelves, flanking both sides of the window.
2 NAME TO KNOW
William Morris
Best known as the father of the Arts and Crafts Movement, British artist William Morris used woodblock printing to capture the patterns of nature during a time of industrialization in England. The kitchen's botanical wallcovering ("Fruit"; sandersondesigngroup.com) depicts citrus and pomegranates and was one of his earliest designs, first printed in 1864.
