A Blue & White Kitchen Makeover With Great Storage Ideas
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
If you're looking for a sign to paint your cabinets blue, look no further! Designer Rebecca Hay shares how she overhauled a young family's inefficient kitchen with a few simple yet impactful elements. The space was in serious need of a more practical layout, so Rebecca added a cozy banquette, roomy island, bar area (complete with a wine fridge) and floor-to-ceiling built-ins. Blue lower cabinets, chrome finishes and white and gray checkered floors add even more style to the hardworking hangout. Plus, steal all of Rebecca's savvy storage ideas, like the custom bins in the drawers to keep produce fresh.

Love how even small kitchen with custom well designed plan can be so multi functional and beautiful
I absolutely love blue kitchens. Kudos to the designer who did a fabulous job. She is even color coordinated with the space. Stunning renovation.
I've worked for Rebecca on several projects and it's such a joy to collaborate with her. She always considers the clients' lifestyles and how they use the space before making it pretty. It sometimes can be a long process and a lot of give/take, but the end result always works. Absolutely love love this Kitchen! Great work RHD team!
That's truly beautiful Kitchen..... You are fantastic designer!! Thank you for sharing your beautiful work....House&Home
One word for this kitchen is ”Amazing”
That cofee cabinet is a win win.
Absolute love love love this transformation! Functional yet great aesthetics and design
Beautiful. Perfect maximization of the space and very aesthetically serene
It’s a beautiful renovation. Love the blue, love the hardware and I love the bar area! Smartly done!
Love this kitchen!
This is a really awesome kitchen. is it possible to marry a kitchen? Seriously if I lived in Canada and actually owned property I would hire this lady.

BEAUTIFUL a dreamy kitchen
There are so many things about his kitchen that I really like, the custom additions and for sure the floor. Wow!
Love a good looking blue and white kitchen! This is stunning and practical 😍
Love this kitchen! Only thing I don’t love is the nook with the round table. I would have went with a small rectangle table. But still, she did a great job. Love it!
Awesome, probably best kitchen on house and home so far, maybe because she described so many custom ideas and they really are great! ... And perhaps coz I love the blue and white combo (which I'm striving to incorporate into my home - it's so calming). One day if I re-do my kitchen, this will be my inspiration for sure!
Great storage solutions!
I am not sure if it's the fisheye lens but the kitchen seems pretty crowded with the island in the middle (it's pretty big too!), but the style and storage ideas are awesome.

Right, it should have stayed a galley style kitchen. The square footage is too tight.
I can spend my whole day in this Kitchen😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
So well designed and thoroughly thought out, I’m obsessed. Rebecca Hay gets me every time!
Loovee every details of it!😻
So smart with everything. Just wow!
This is beautiful!
love it!, it's relly functional!!! wish I could hire u to remodel my tiny kitchen
My favorite colors. Beautiful kitchen.👍
Lovely! Simple
Beautiful kitchen design! Now imagine a light maple plank for the flooring, I think this would tie it all in perfectly. Nevertheless, love the use of colour in a kitchen like this!

Can’t do underfloor heating with a wood floor. Also, wood floors in a kitchen will need refinishing after only a few years with young children in the house.
Love love love this!😍
Not sure about that particular shade of blue. And I usually love blue kitchens ...
Pretty but I could not possibly deal with walking around island to get to fridge and pantry. Awkward to me. Plus the bar sink is cramped and I would get bruises from the handles sticking out underneath. Banquet and table is a great idea.
Very refreshing kitchen. Would've her to do my kitchen.
Lovely kitchen... just a technical concern... doesn't the steam from the coffee machine cause damage and moist mess inside the cabinet? Specially on the shelf right above it...
LOVE the silver hardware...brass is getting a little tired.
Muito lindo 👏🎉👏🇧🇷🌷🌼
Not a fan of the blue, yet this kitchen is beautiful.
Excelent 😍😘
🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩
In my opinion, everything is cool and wonderful. I want to cook there and invite friends.
Thank you for including a tour of what’s inside the cabinets. Too many videos just focus on looks, not function.
what blue shade is this exactly? Love this idea
How did she get the coffee bar doors to slide in on themselves? What hardware is that?
What color do the cabinets have? I’d love to paint my cabinets
👍🏿❤️😍
The preview image of this video is so saturated I wanted to scream. I was horrified they use such primary blue for cabinets. But thanks god it was way more settled shade.
Could you share what the blue color is?
I love it but I could do without the island it makes it feel cluttered
What blue is this?
I thought it would have some space for the kids stuff
Beautiful kitchen but too many closed and big cabinets. Would be good to have the coffee cabinet, for example, exposed rather than behind a closed cabinet
When will we see some diversity in the designers you choose?

I would. I would hire a black designer. Why not. I like this channel a lot - but the sad truth is: I never saw one here. In Toronto are a lot of asian people... And I don't think it is racist to talk about it. But it is racist not to. Like some of the others in the comments wants to.

And I think that H&H should also be free to hire the designers they like, it's their channel right? Being politically correct is killing creativity, art and free thinking.

I liked the kitchen, but she was wrong about the table choice. It makes the space look smaller. And I’m against the floors, it just feels like it will become dated in the next couple of years.
The workflow in that kitchen must be awful. It looks pretty but practically, must be a nightmare day to day.

@@enzoenzo7895 It's a work line not a triangle with an island in the middle. The Fridge, hob and sink are all in alignment. Every time you need something out of the fridge you need to run round the island. Either put all the appliances on one side of the island or dog leg an appliance to create a triangle. I have an island in my kitchen and everything is behind the island on one side making a perfect triangle.Also, do Americans and Canadians only have all-in-one cookers? They are pretty rare in UK as we prefer a built in hob and then eye level ovens.

It’s nice but this lady really took their money. Customized wood pockets for Keurig cups?! Come on! She also kept saying some really ditzy things when describing simple features: ‘And this unique door shuts you away to keep the noise out.’ 😒
too matchy matchy, floor makes it feel like a garage, island seems too big for space, countertops should have rounded edges as it looks cheap and dangerous
Blue kitchens are a major design Faux Pas. Blue is the least appetizing color on the color wheel and using blue in a room where you prepare food doesn't make any sense. A trained designer knows this, they teach you this in school.

Yeah, you are right they are most common in a commercial setting to drive sales, but I am speaking more about homes, in fact red grabs attention so imo in a kitchen setting I feel its going to be distracting and not subtle with the overall vibe of the house, unless the whole palette includes red which might be an overkill but anyways it boils down to preference anyways.
Love this kitchen!
