The kitchen is the heart of the home and the central meeting place for a variety of occasions; dinner with friends and family, homework with the kids, birthday parties and Christmas dinners. As one of the most used rooms in the house, the kitchen should be functional, high quality and aesthetically pleasing.

Incorporating vintage design features in the kitchen is a great way to add character to your home - and it needn't break the bank. Small additions the room can create a rich, timeless look that suits both traditional and contemporary kitchen designs.

Fixtures
