The traditional kitchen is a classic for what it is: a clean canvas for legacy detailing, from fine beaded molding and inset doors on raised cabinets that dominate traditional kitchen design, to crown molding atop the cabinets and the use of the footed base at floor level — a trick of the trade that gives built-in elements, such as sink cabinets and islands, a “furniture” look.
Most traditional kitchens are painted in shades of white. Oak is popular in traditional kitchens — especially the use of quartersawn English oak on cabinetry, which provides both durability and visual character. As with the footed base, the use of quartersawn wood detailing creates a furniture quality appearance.
