I keep on gravitating towards romantic-looking kitchens lately. Who can blame me when it’s about a beautiful kitchen like this one though…? Full of plants, pots of flowers surprising you in every corner, warm green cabinets and tall up-to-ceiling windows, it’s beyond charming! I can imagine myself sitting on the counter top, yes you read that right, looking out the window while enjoying my afternoon coffee…

French are graciously eclectic, Italians are modern innovators, but Spaniards are all about clutter-free. Decorator Gema Cidri with the collaboration of Luis Puerta were looking for simple forms to make this home relaxed and elegant at the same time. Something I’m a fan of if you allow me to tell you. The layout of this entire flat in Madrid was reassigned to make it suitable to the owner’s lifestyle. Keeping a monochromatic scheme and all furniture close to one height helps with the serenity of the environment. Madrilenian design is a bit on the minimal side in a way that they don’t go too much overboard with art. It seems they rather keep their walls bare more often. Another aspect very often found in Madrid is the use of sliding, or pocket doors. I really love that because of their space saving effect.
This room seems to have no windows but the glasses on the right wall double as an indoor window allowing light from the adjacent room to flow in.
