Here comes the sun - kitchen talk


This is the story of the making the kitchen for our new place, from the floor upwards.


 So first off we started with taking off these plates and plastering revealing the gorgeous red brick wall underneath, good theme for a kitchen.

 I dissambled this fifties kitchen from a block house in Helsinki to have enough pieces to re-create a retro one.











Then the sink cabinet was piled around the pipes and the floor was painted up.
Almost all of the cabinets got a new plinth and a leveling above to meet the hights of modern standards.



The table tops were finely cut to meet the eclectic walls.




 And then attached firmly to the base (though leaving the leeway for the wood to live their own life).
 









The table slabs got elastic joints and the food closet was restored in to its old place, with good insulations the floor heating going around it though, so it could  be turned to a traditional cool cabinet by drilling ventilation to the outer wall.













Then we had a bee to paint all the closets with new surfaces, bright yellow and white!

Cabinets attached to the walls aaand...

we even got power!  No rush finishing this with battens.

And a lot of light with all these old windows.
