Country kitchens provide cosiness and living comfort. Whether traditional, modern, Scandinavian or romantic - country house kitchens suit a variety of interior styles. The kitchens often have white or pastel-coloured fronts with ornamentation and can be combined well with wood and stone elements.

What characterises a country house kitchen?
The typical style elements of country house kitchens are:
Classic country house kitchen
American country house kitchen
English country house kitchen
Classic country house kitchens emphasise natural materials such as wood and stone. They often have white or beige coffered fronts and are made of solid wood. Wall units often contain glass elements and larder units provide storage space.
American country kitchens are usually open-plan in design and are equipped with kitchen islands and bar stools. Gas hobs are used for traditional cooking. The style is more rustic than in European kitchens.
English country kitchens play with eye-catching fittings and handles. The fronts are often grey or dark blue. They are inspired by a retro look, which can be underlined by walls made of stone or brickwork.
Scandinavian country house kitchens are characterised by white fronts and combinations with light wood. The coffered fronts are simple and the decoration is restrained. Geometric patterns emphasise the Scandi style.
Modern country house kitchens have clearer lines. Their fronts are white or grey and are less elaborately decorated than other country house styles. Colourful fronts or lacquer and glass elements also make country house kitchens more modern. White or black taps with simple designs accentuate the look.
Are you interested in modern kitchens?
Every country house kitchen is unique. Depending on the furnishing style and space available, a kitchen is customised. The layout of the room is important here. The classic L-shaped kitchen is practical, can be integrated almost anywhere and is suitable for closed and open-plan rooms. There is also plenty of space for tall units. If the room is small, a single-row country kitchen is an option. If, on the other hand, you have a lot of space, a double-row kitchen can give the room an open feel.
For square rooms, U-shaped country house kitchens are often designed. This shape offers a large amount of work surface, short distances and plenty of storage space. In large rooms, this concept can also be combined with a kitchen island or additional seating. G-shaped kitchens are an extension of the U-shape and offer even more space. Depending on the size of the room, seating can be attached to the island either inside or outside.
The open-plan kitchen-living room is particularly cosy and practical. A kitchen island can form the centrepiece here. Sociable kitchen islands include a counter or dining area. Powerful extractor hoods or modern hob extractors make the room even more open, as they are less visible.
Country house kitchens often feature light-coloured fronts in white or beige. These are often combined with wood, for example as worktops or flooring. Subtle pastel shades such as sage green are on trend. Dark floors and worktops contrast well with light kitchens. Conversely, if dark fronts are chosen, as in the English country house style, these can be lightened with pale worktops. Tiles or stone are also suitable as flooring. White tiles in a retro look can also be used as splashbacks.
Here you will find decorative elements and home accessories that you can use to set the scene in your country house kitchen. Baskets, artificial grasses or candles and bowls emphasise the natural and rustic look. Be inspired by our curtain service, because you can also decorate your windows with chequered curtains or ruffled versions.
