We love spending weekends in it, cooking, receiving friends or sharing family moments. I love cooking and being able to be a part of everything that It happens at home. During the week, the breadth of the island makes it a meeting place for a coffee and, lately, one of my daughter's favorite places to do homework", introduces our protagonist.The apartment is located in Torrelavega and is from the beginning of the 20th century.The reader Raquel had always wanted to live in it and, with the help of Joaquín Díaz's team, she carried out the reform of her dreams."All the spaces revolve around the 25 m2 kitchen, which was located in the brightest and most special area of ​​the house with an open concept, integrated with the living room. We eliminated partitions, recovered original elements and kept the height of the ceiling, the Herringbone parquet floor and large windows, restoring doors and shutters. As I wanted light to enter every corner, we turned part of the corridor into an iron and glass screen that lets in light", he details.They designed the kitchen with great care and Silvia, from Cocinas Villanueva, helped them make it a reality."It is white to match the wood of the beams and floors, and has some black decorative touches that give an incredible effect! The furniture is by Santos, with ample storage space perfectly distributed, and the countertop is made of white marble-effect porcelain calacatta. The island? Without a doubt, it was my best decision. In it I have the induction hob and an integrated extractor fan that leave a visually very clean space. I chose three anthracite gray leather stools and two black industrial-style lamps from Maisons du Monde for the area where we eat," he says.When choosing the appliances, "we looked for energy efficiency and quality/price ratio. But as it was a kitchen open to the living room, aesthetics was also very important. They had to be well integrated into the environment and that is why we decided on the white glass. It was innovative and seemed perfect for oven and microwave. We decided to integrate the rest of the appliances," he concludes.Well thought!If you want to be up to date with everything that is published on www.elmueble.com, subscribe to our newsletter.The best kitchens of readers: Ana's cozy rustic kitchen with bar and office in AlbaceteThe best kitchens of the readers: the black and white kitchen of Eva's magazine in a town in ValenciaThe small, complete and stylish kitchen with white furniture from Ikea by Patricia in ÁvilaOur best editors select for you the best of this week's El Mueble.The most viewed, the best photos, the latest.Our hits!Receive the best tricks in your email to finally say Hello order, goodbye chaos!No one like El Mueble and our experts to advise you betterIn your home, every month and at the best priceAlways available on your favorite deviceSubscribe to The Furniture12 months, 12 magazines A full year full of inspiration and ideas for your homeDon't worry We send it to your home every month, you won't miss any number- 25% discount.Subscribe now through this offer for a full year for €44.95Do you want to stop receiving the most outstanding news from El Mueble?
