Hi, I'm Susi, a writer for Design Shuffle, a fabulous social media site where you can share your own design projects and browse through tens of thousands of photos from designers from around the world. One of my favorite parts of my job is guest blogging for great blogs like The Homely Place. I'm excited to be visiting this week and writing about rustic contemporary kitchen design ideas.
At first glance rustic and contemporary styles would seem to be too different to work together in a cohesive design. So wrong. The rough, aged nature of rustic design is the perfect counterpoint to the sleek, minimalism of contemporary style. Take a look at these eight rustic contemporary kitchens and see if you agree.
Thanks for letting me and Design Shuffle come and visit. Enjoy!
This contemporary kitchen with rustic pendant shades was the picture that inspired this post. Love the mix of smooth, clean contemporary white and handmade, natural and rustic elements.
Minimalist white and rustic wood create a sleek contemporary kitchen in this antique farmhouse. European designers have been blending contemporary kitchens with rustic spaces for years.
Industrial contemporary elements mix with farmhouse in this rustic kitchen. Love the industrial stools and lighting with the rustic wood island.
This small cozy rustic kitchen is decked out in stainless steel counters and appliances that add a decidedly contemporary style.† Love the rustic stone wall behind the stove.
Unfinished wood floors add a rustic touch to this contemporary industrial inspired kitchen.† Inspired kitchen design ideas--open storage for pans, including cast iron skillets typical of rustic style, and vintage pendant lights warm up the cool contemporary space.
Rustic contemporary is a blend of old and new.† The use of old timber or barn wood shelves with a contemporary limestone mosaic backsplash is a great example. Mix antique ceramics with contemporary pieces.
Scandinavian designer get the rustic contemporary style right and gives us kitchen design ideas to dream about. This kitchen is all sleek appliances and finishes in a rustic white washed wood space.
This kitchen in a brick arched space is a minimalist masterpiece. The lack of upper storage keeps the lines streamlined.† Gorgeous.

groovy kitchen features
Unique features are what makes a kitchen individual. There's nothing worse than a kitchen that has no character and looks like it's walked straight out of a showroom. The best kitchens are a mix of old and new and must look 'lived-in'.

wood versus steel in kitchens
I am always divided between the two styles of kitchen that I admire - the use of rustic, natural, organic wood compared to modern, sleek steel. I would love to have the opportunity to combine them in a kitchen - maybe in my next house!

red kitchens
2 weekends ago we painted our kitchen walls red. We have white cupboards (which has turned out ok although I wanted wooden ones when we bought them) and luckily they offset the red walls well, also preventing the room from becoming too dark. I hope to clear all the renovation mess soon to get some nice photos on a sunny day - if the sun ever shines again. For now I'm being inspired by what others have done with red kitchens:

kitchens
Recently I've been thinking about kitchens a lot... we're painting ours red finally, 3 years after the renovation.
Although we're not changing anything else about the room, I feel inspired to look at what's happening now in kitchens. And I've got a few more ideas tucked up my sleeve.... pics to come in coming weeks!
