A large open kitchen with light wood cabinets and marble countertop and backsplash with a long kitchen island and four tall stools.

Long, light wood kitchen (Alair Homes)

February 19, 2026 in Interiors

From the outside, you wouldn’t picture there would be this much space, but this kitchen shows how wide the home can be.

Before this full renovation, the kitchen was much smaller with no room for an island, but now it’s spacious with plenty of space to walk through, a lot more storage, and a skylight above the coffee station.

Builder: Alair Homes / @alairhomes.toronto

White kitchen with marbled backsplash and long kitchen island. A large black vase and loaves of bread sit on the kitchen island.

Kitchen redesign: Peninsula to Island (Belynda Chen Interiors)

January 31, 2026 in Interiors

The original design of this kitchen had dark brown cabinets and a peninsula that cut off the middle of the kitchen.

Interior designer, Belynda (Belynda Chen Interiors) changed the layout by removing the peninsula and installing a long island with storage and countertop seating. She added built-in pantry storage at the other end of the kitchen to maximize the space.

Bathroom: Fun shower tile (Alair Homes)

November 30, 2025 in Interiors

Alair Homes transformed this bathroom by adding a green and white striped tile pattern. The tile extended beyond the shower to give the entire wall some colour and a focal point.

It’s ok if you don’t want to add colour to your kitchen. If you like neutrals or black and (off) white, there are ways to incorporate them like @belyndacheninteriors did here.

The island is black, but with some detail on the side to add

This is very much my kind of kitchen 😍 It’s the details like the skylight above the coffee + tea station, rolling vertical storage, and the overall design that make this both beautiful and functional.
