Why We Love It
Ikea cabinets and a refurbished stove make this kitchen from Sunset magazine affordable, while slick surfaces and super functionality keep it super chic. A high-grade plywood, finply, was used
to frame the island.

What Makes It Work
Sleek finishes, such as the mirrored hood, quartz countertops, and painted cabinets, keep the kitchen of this 1940s bungalow
planted firmly in the present.

Steal This Idea
Embrace laminate countertops -- they're eco-friendly, cheap, and indestructible -- but choose a unique color, such as the
pale blue used here, to enhance their manufactured appeal.
