Contemporary Kitchens: getting your kitchen styled the modern way

The heart of any home is the kitchen. Whether that kitchen is old-world, fresh country, or modern, it is in the kitchen that the family comes together and ingredients offer inspiration for the social interaction that is the morning, or the evening meal.

Contemporary, or modern kitchens are an eclectic mixture of colors, materials, elements and textures. You can select copper backsplash tiles, and combine them with a glass cabinet panel which has been framed in a deep wood to offer a hint of warmth, or perhaps even some brilliant colors and a black and white checkered floor tile to give it a touch of the retro.

You might elect to use a modern tiling and backsplash, while the cabinetry will be sleek steel, with some gorgeous frosted glass that offers you just a peek at what lies inside the cabinets. Perfect additions to the contemporary kitchen will be in-cabinet lighting that shows your kitchen in a lighter, more airy fashion.

Under cabinet lighting is all the rage in contemporary kitchens and with very good reason. The lights, or tube lighting, will be installed above the kick-plate, where the cabinet meets the plate and reflect nicely across your floors, lighting the area more efficiently, providing a great atmosphere and a far more airy feeling to the room.

This will be helpful, especially if the room is a bit smaller, as most contemporary kitchens seem to be. Lighting, particularly something out of the ordinary such as track lighting with multiple snap in lamps will make a great statement about your style and also give you some practical light in the right place.

Lighting can in fact make the kitchen, giving it nearly any look you want. Bright colored pendant lamps over the work area or on a breakfast bar or table will serve a dual purpose. Making the room glow with warmth and style, they will also offer that spotlight effect just where you need it.

The granite or soapstone counter will be perfectly in place, balancing the room and offering a hint of warmth and down home to your modern kitchen. Marble or stainless steel will work equally well and each is capable of providing you with the perfect surface that is easy care and fast to clean up.

Modern kitchens are about beauty, ease of use and practicality as much as they are about style. Your modern kitchen will feature some of the newer appliances. Perhaps a flat surface electric range with a built in microwave above it as a space saver to your kitchen.

Appliances might be under cabinet mounts for keeping the counters clutter free and still offering you that coffee at your fingertips in the morning. Anything that offers you a look of warmth, but keeps the room airy, clean and unfettered is going to be at home here in your contemporary kitchen.

The contemporary kitchen should be fresh and original, truly the heart of the home. The contemporary kitchen is high energy. An urban atmosphere combined with warmth and welcome are at the heart of any contemporary kitchen.

Description

Our Tile Art is hand-crafted, painted and kiln fired to insure quality, beauty, and integrity. Our Tile Art will last forever (if not broken) and come with a very glossy, glazed finish. They ship ready to hang or stand (built in stand). The tiles may also easily be used as a traditional building tile. They are the perfect way to brighten up a kitchen back splash or bathroom mosaic, create a beautiful table or tiled floor, or just used for home/business decor! Our products are created through a unique process called tube-lining. It takes a lot of time and patience, an artist draws many details throughout a blank white-fired tile with special tools loaded with a fluid clay. This placed clay acts as a color barrier that contains the over-glazes painted into the sections. Next the tile is hand-painted with rich colorful glazes that set within the clay lines. At this point, the tile is complete and needs to be kiln fired. We put our tiles through an elaborate kiln fire process. They are cooked then cooled throughout several cycles lasting 24 hours. During this kiln firing process, our kilns reach temperatures of over 2000 degrees Fahrenheit. This creates very detailed lines and preserves the colors to last.

Features

  • 100% Hand Painted on Premium White-Fired Tiles
  • Hand Tube Lined and Crafted so you can Feel the Lines
  • Kiln Down Fire Baked at 2000 degrees Fahrenheit for 24 hours
  • Features Vibrant Colors, Fine Details, and Fade-Resistant Glazes
  • Ready to Hang or Display Standing with built-in Hardware! Great for Construction Uses!
