Kitchen of the Week: A French Country Makeover in Philly (10 photos)

AFTER: Robinson chose light-colored, 20-by-20-inch porcelain tile for the floor and a creamy white paint for the walls to enlarge the space. She opted for a tile floor over wood because of its durability and to maintain the kitchen’s open and airy design. “If we put a lot of wood surfaces in there, it wouldn’t have felt as French and feminine,” she says.

To stay in line with the home’s roots, she included lighting fixtures from Rejuvenation, a historic-reproduction lighting company. “All of the lighting has that historic, almost schoolhouse feel, which adds to the home’s cottage style,” she says.
