Bringing More Space To A Chic Kitchen Area | Design Inc

Diden and Simon have hired Sarah Richardson to remodel their kitchen and cosy room. With Didem favouring a more classic design compared to Simon's preference for contemporary, Sarah is hoping the couple will be wide open to her ideas when it comes to their narrow kitchen space. But will they?

Yes, timeless and I love, love the color pallet, makes the space look larger, and the elegant simplicity.

[@lenellamaxwell6934]

I don't understand why people choose a particular designer and then don't trust the designer to create what they want. It is beyond me. If you don't like Sarah's style, don't hire her. Everything Sarah touches looks amazing!

[@murielbaith5445]

But once in a while I would've chosen something different. One of the things I like best about Sarah is she works with her client's preferences. That's especially important in a kitchen where you have to tear things out and custom fit new if you don't like it. What the client wants is the designer's vision and expertice.

[@juliananton7800]

This client made me crazy 😜 so adorable and sweet! Indecisiveness is a massive pet peeve for me!

[@lourdessantiago3291]

This small galley kitchen with those great appliances and finishes make it gorgeous, that is very true indeed.. Great to look at.. . Love it

[@minniedease7477]

Ga Galley kitchens are always such a challenge. Well done.

[@terrytt2932]

I'd be done too Sarah! What happened to "it's all up to you, in your hands"?!?!? It did turn out beautifully!

[@yvonnerolley9676]

Any chance of Tommy and Sarah doing a show together again?

[@CarlaLR74]

Thank you Abode for these episodes.

[@AbodeLDS]

No Problem!

[@TravelersWarden]

That is the most Ewok looking dog I have ever seen in my life! It's adorable!

[@pamelafox7677]

Love the mocha cabinets.

[@angelabatterman6381]

The kitchen turned out great, but dealing with those clients was not that easy. I had a design business years ago. My partner was working with the client and I was doing the draperies. The client wanted the windows done first, not my choice but as I am coming down from installing them she said " I don't think I like those". I let my partner take care of that one!

[@monaboutet6863]

Love the results 💞

[@nyhusglen]

This kitchen is so gorgeous, hasn’t aged a bit. Love Sarah

[@jeanlaubenthal698]

I love how Sarah does not skimp on properly made drapery.

[@joannaaffrunti1446]

Love the finished look! Bravo Sarah!

[@debblouin]

Sometimes I think the process is like a bride shopping for a wedding dress. As long as you don’t choose, you are always the star. Once you choose, the attention moves from you to the plan. Some people don’t like that.

[@Mers3av1ew]

Amazing. What a transformation! Your videos are always so inspiring and helpful - thank you.

[@clairetitus6904]

Gorgeous results.

[@rustythecat2163]

Super wonderful kitchen design. Love it, want it!

[@marilynweist2645]

Beautiful! It looks great! ❤️❤️

[@eileenfile6157]

I LOVE Sarah Richardson!

[@asifyoucare]

I think this is a fantastic kitchen design and I feel like there were some family dynamics of the client bleeding into her concerns...I think they should have gone with Sarah & Jessica's original ideas

[@annettesjoy]

Miss Tommy and Sarah together.

[@jimjimmyjames59]

Love that color!

[@abigail1023]

I don't know why the "After" is shown before the episode even starts. I know people enjoy watching the changes and the creative process, as do I, but the big reveal is a main feature. When the stupid music is so loud it drowns out the discussions - no can do.

[@rudychon1146]

Love it. Now I want mocha cabinets

[@debblouin]

My dream kitchen color scheme is artichoke and eggplant. Literally, like cut open an artichoke and an eggplant and let the scheme play!

[@linhdasagen6498]

Timeless! Love.

[@aimee-lynndonovan6077]

Great look

[@sandieedward8214]

Love it and well done with the clients indecisiveness... came out 😍 beautiful

[@Sherene54321]

I absolutely love this one!

[@davidawilliams252]

FABULOUS!!!

[@nepenthe_gal759]

Love SARAH RICHARDSON.....I haven't seen her in many years !!

[@damsel72]

This couple is…difficult. I would have walked away. Poor dog.

[@rochellefreed1287]

Why were the old kitchen cabinets not repurposed instead of destroyed ?

[@thehungrygoldfish]

They were haunted.

[@kristilisakleiner9384]

@@thehungrygoldfish hahahaha

[@ginacrusco234]

A huge transformation, of course -- but the visual flow is blocked by the bench in the center of the sitting area. There is no focal point at that end for the eye to move toward. The success here was getting both of the clients and the designers to agree.

[@madhatter909]

I agree, bench was unneccessary

[@tammygaines4228]

Hello from Kentucky! Beautiful design!!! TFS!!!

[@AbodeLDS]

Thank you! 😊

[@paulawray6042]

I love this

[@kimhaas7586]

Well executed but I’m not a fan of the couple’s choices. It’s too safe imho.

[@svietka202]

Thank God they went with that beautiful countertop because I personally absolutely detest the colour of the cabinets and I don’t think you could have found a more boring and generic backsplash as what they got

[@suemount6042]

I wish my galley kitchen was that wide mines 9 ft long with doors each end and 6 wide

[@suemount6042]

Well I definitely have galley envy it’s stunning

[@cristinap7133]

Where is Tommy?

[@Stumpybear7640]

I think Sarah's colour scheme would have been better. More of the wow factor x

[@laurareutter6928]

I missed Tommy.

[@hmwjones]

The reveal in the first 30 seconds kinda eliminates the need to watch the whole show...

[@jeanvignes]

This episode is from August 2006. I don't think the dark color scheme has aged well. I prefer a white kitchen. White kitchens have been in style for over 100 years.

[@danieldotson528]

This couple should have hired a contractor, not a designer

[@meganseastrom5467]

One of my least favorite designs; all brown, beige and boring. Maybe it looks better in person. At least they did go for the Venetizia countertops.

[@paulomontero12]

I can do wood.

[@matta8931]

It looks great. I kinda don't like Sarah's taste she is too hooked on pink all the time.

[@debbiee6535]

I know you there to guide them but you're a guide and you now you're pushing and that turns me off every time

[@debblouin]

If you don’t push you will get pushed into a corner. You have to balance pushing with coaxing.
