Peter Whiteley’s article appear in the May 2007 issue of Sunset magazine; go there to read the entire article, and to see a photo gallery of the home in question:

Add a little, gain a lot. That’s the
lesson Monica and David Stephenson learned when they made a small
addition to the cramped galley kitchen in their Seattle home.

Somewhere
along the line, the kitchen had been poorly remodeled and "had no
relationship to the rest of the house or backyard," Monica recalls. It
simply didn’t work for the bustle of daily life with 2-year-old
daughter Sophia, infant daughter Annabel, and two big Akitas.

Although
the couple yearned for an updated kitchen with more space, they wanted
it to fit the style of their 1918 Craftsman bungalow. Also on their
list: a breakfast area with a backyard view, a home office, storage
space, and a more generous back porch where muddy boots and paws could
be cleaned

We just finished a remodel on a 1929 Tudor Revival / Craftsman bungalow (exterior is Tudor, interior is Craftsman, complete with California tile and built-ins).

Did a lot of looking in Style 1900 and American Bungalow. We attempted to retain some of the original charm, but make it a more functional space.

The biggest concern was where to put the fridge, which had previously been shoved up against a window in the former wash room/mud room.

We took it down to studs, redirected the flue for the old coal burning heater took out a swinging door, widened an arch, and cut a new one thru to the dining room. Turned an under-utilized closet in the dining room into a walk-thru butler’s pantry / larder.

We splurged on an AGA Legacy stove, because we loved the vintage look. We chose a fridge, and dish washer that we could panel and minimize the modern look. Shaker style cabinets, with glass knobs and bin pulls in depression glass green. An arched area over the stove and the fridge, to pull in more of the look in the rest of the house look. We walled in the area for the fridge to give the perception of a built-in.

I did opt for granite countertop, although soapstone was also considered; I wanted a bit more colour. We chose a white stone tile to mimic the old subway tile, and accented with glass tile to tie in the vintage pulls and knobs. Since the rest of the house had hardwood floors, we pulled up 1960s linoleum which sadly had been nailed to the original hardwood floors and replaced to match the flooring that is in the rest of the house.

We hung halothane lights since that style has been in use for 100 years, and complements the rest of the look. It was a project that was estimated to take 8 weeks, and ended up taking 30. But we are very happy with the result.

Part five in our continuing series on Craftsman kitchen remodels [previously: I, II, III, IV], wherein we look at photographs of beautiful new kitchens, most of them in beautiful old homes. Note that people are integrating many more modern elements into traditional kitchens without any kind of cognitive dissonance re: the rest of the house or room itself – you’ll see contemporary lighting, modern mosaic-tile backsplashes, and of course modern appliances, hardware and gadgets (undercabinet lighting, etc.), and they almost always look terrific:

CJand4gals documented the installation of their new kitchen, from the before to the after and everything in between. Check out the big beautiful pantry and the drawers that use two bin pulls each. The cabinetry is gorgeous, and I love the fact that there’s no overlay – I wish I could have afforded to do mine that way.

KittyBitty did the same, showing off the beautiful grain of the knotty maple (?) cabinets & some very neat suspended lighting & oak moulding, an attractive tile backsplash, and various aint experiments.

Devon’s kitchen project includes a beautiful and very modern light fixture and a truly one-of-a-kind mosaic tile backsplash that still manages to work just fine – even with the addition of some very modern gray cabinets with equally modern hardware – with the rest of her home. The undercabinet lighting is a nice touch (and in that last shot you can see the interesting cabinet-floor cutout they made to accomodate a display of Fiestaware plates). The cabinetry is both modern and Craftsman, and very pretty too.

Atlanta-based Homerebuilders also use Flickr to show off their work, with several inspired Mission / Tudor exteriors – some custom, some remodels – as well as plenty of modern Mission kitchens (i love the open shelving here) and a few other traditional interiors with modern touches (they really like using those contemporary lights in traditional rooms, and it works well).

Gabriel Serafini’s kitchen remodel covers everything from demo to the final product, and is probably the most complete kitchen-remodel-related photoset on all of Flickr; the kitchen may be one of the most custom of all custom kitchens mentioned in this article, too. Copper bar & main sinks & some really neat fixtures; the custom-made countertop has a "river" of backlit blue running through it (it appears to be an accurate map of the Mississippi basin); the cherry cabinets are really something else; the church-organ range hood is a masterpiece.

And of course there are plenty of bits & pieces: this hutch-like cabinet, a great tile job & an interesting faucet, this hidden kitchen; an attractive slate tile backsplash;
