Forties-style kitchen

Tweet this

The Forties gave us a practical homemaker look that favoured flat-fronted units above frivolous detailing. Pay a nostalgic nod to this vintage era with a mid-century modern makeover in your kitchen.

Forties kitchen

This chunky panelled cream Rio Sand kitchen features simple-edged, flat-fronted doors with arts & crafts-style lattice detailing on doors. Combine with touches of oak for a heart-of-the-home finish. From a selection at Caple.
