49 Dream Kitchen Designs (Pictures)

When I think about dream kitchen designs, I picture an expansive space with luxurious countertops, beautiful cabinetry, high-end appliances, and a large eat-in island. Some of my favorite luxury kitchens offer rich wood cabinetry, such as cherry wood, with natural stone counters and gorgeous patterned tile work for the floors and backsplash. I love kitchen designs of all types and hope you’ll be as inspired by the images shown here as I am!

In the photo above, the gorgeous crystal chandeliers and quality natural stone floors are reflected in this design, which naturally exudes the charm of classic kitchens. The antiqued white of the panel doors blends seamlessly with the yellowish tone of the wall paint, while the stone tiles used on the backsplash are of the same material as the floor, creating a unified look.

The countertop is gray granite for the kitchen island, and the main counters are white granite with two small crystal chandeliers hanging above the island.
