Another tell-tale sign of new versus old kitchens is the glass in the doors of older kitchens usually have beveled edges. Beveled glass is thicker and feels more substantial than the thin plate glass in modern doors. When I did my kitchen remodel, that was one of the first splurge decisions I made (and am really glad I did).

Love it. My heart leaps every time Brent posts a video. This one was especially interesting to me as I have been building period authentic furniture for my family in my home shop for 40 years. In 2009, I redid our kitchen to duplicate the Carter’s Grove mansion kitchen at Colonial Williamsburg, a stunning colonial kitchen.

Proper scale and proportion are a sign of great workmanship and pleasing proportion. Beaded inset design can’t be beat for craftsmanship and stunning appearance. Upper cabinet doors should have mid stile so there are two panels. I have found most pleasing and authentic furniture quality door design to be 3:1 ratio of lower to upper panel show heights with 3-¾” lower rail, 2-¾” mid/upper rails and 2-¼” stiles. And progressive door panel show heights in lower cabinets look stunning - for three drawer stack - 9-⅞” , 8-7/16”, 7-1/16” and for a four drawer stack - 8-1/16”, 6-11/16”, 5-5/16”, 3-15/16” bottom to top. Finished end panels mirroring the doors is also a sign of attention to design detail. Hope this is helpful. Horton Brass is my go to source for hardware. Their hand forged iron hardware is exceptional.

I have a bunch of questions: 1. That sub zero fridge at 12:00: shouldn’t it have a panel kit/ panel? Probably hard to make stainless steel historic. Same question for dishwashers: panel vs. stainless. 2: what about modern trends: kitchen islands, pot fillers, etc. 3. Does at the cabinet hardware finish have to all match throughout the room and throughout the house including door hardware and bathroom and exterior door hardware? 4. Were farmhouse sinks really used in farmhouses? (I’m skeptical). Do they work in traditional houses (Federal,Georgian, Greek revival) Thanks.
@BrentHull
@BrentHull Жыл бұрын
Ok, 1. you don't need to cover all the appliances if you can get the cabinets right. You've communicated the 80% it is ok to give on appliances. 2. Just be careful of trendy things. Its hard to know one early on. Islands are here to stay, pot fillers have come and mostly gone. 3. No, but interior designers like it to. 4. Good question. I'll need review. early sinks did often have a drop fronts. Because kitchens are a product of the last 100 years, most historic houses would have a new kitchen as well. So yes. it does. Thanks

Hi Brent. I enjoyed the video, but as I was watching the segment in the Georgian Revival kitchen about your preference for using Butt hinges on the cabinet doors (because they convey “age, history and tradition) I couldn’t help but notice the bright LED strip of lighting above all the upper cabinet molding. Lighting like that would never have been used (or been possible) in a historic, period room so I’m curious as to where you draw the line between recreating authentic details in a room (through cabinetry and trim work) and then having to integrate modern lighting technology? For me, having a bright band of lighting like that around the upper perimeter of the entire room seems rather jarring.

Are there any resources you have for historic hardware? Books or manufacturers/retailers who do a good job of characterizing the correct styles and time periods with hardware products (hinges, door knobs, etc.). Any other advice on resources of how to 1.) source architecturally correct hardware and 2.) identify the correct style and time period with hardware found in, say, architectural salvage stores or old houses?

I just watched your Passion for Craft Episode where you commented on the comments for the first video in this series as well as this episode. As a custom cabinet maker myself I feel there needs to be a little bit of a explanation for the push back you get from cabinet makers. I think a lot of it comes from 80% of the work we are used to doing is for the McMansions style of houses. These builders don't want to pay for inset doors unless the customers ask for them. Most of these builders don't want to wait the extra time for them because they all want to install the cabinetry way earlier than they need to be just to distract home owners from the slower lull periods of building a house where it doesn't it seem like things are happening. So when a guy like you comes along and want to work with us on to solve issues like that, I could see most cabinet makers being skeptical at first because that is not the norm at all.
