Our Modern Kitchen Design (Leicht)

Hi guys! Today I’m showing you our kitchen cabinet design - woohoo! We are working with Trey at German Kitchen Center here in Atlanta and our kitchen cabinets and handles are all from Leicht. I LOVE how sleek and modern the frameless cabinets are, the three tone design, and the diagonal cut on the waterfall island. We went with gold hardware on most of the cabinets and the rest are the handless design. The hood will be custom made by a metal fabricator since I can’t find a hood with the exact dimensions that we need for the stainless steel restaurant style hood that we want.

A few things will be different than the photos like the HUGE 36” sink, black Kohler faucet, and added gold Delta pot filler. We also think we might use either subway tile on the backsplash or hexagon tile if the cost of a matching stone backsplash is out of the budget. Lastly there will be lights installed on either side of the hood similar to what you see over the counter next to the fridge.

Our appliances are stainless steel and mostly from Samsung minus the dishwasher from Bosch that will have a custom panel over it. We almost went with all Bosch appliances but we currently have a Samsung refrigerator and I LOVE it. I know that sounds silly, but I need to have an external water filler and the flex drawer on the outside and Bosch doesn’t make that design. Because you get such a great deal when you bundle large appliances together we decided that Samsung was the way to go for everything minus the Bosch dishwasher since we need something that allows for a custom panel.

The door that you see mocked up leads into our pantry where we will put the microwave, food, another prep counter, more cabinets, etc. We don’t even have a pantry at our current house so this will be a whole new world for us!

Now we get to start looking for countertops, backsplash, barstools and lights to go over the island - yay!
