Steal This Look: Minimalist English Kitchen - Remodelista
Spotted and admired: a white Georgian kitchen in Hampshire, UK; we’re loving the understated minimalist take on the traditional English kitchen.
Even staunch modernists will find appeal in the subtle detailing: the subway tile backsplash; the pale gray accent colors, the cream Aga.

The kitchen is equipped with multiple cooking locations between the Aga cooker and the additional cooktop installed in the kitchen island.
