Matilda Goad's kitchen is beautifully quirky and the checkered tile surrounding the stove are the candles on the cake. Major cozy home magic here.
Some of my favorite elements aside from the check tile.
The floral lamp with woven rattan (?) shade
Tiny piece of framed art above the kitchen sink
Green cabinets
Tall white scalloped shelf that also camouflages the radiator.
Large banquette - I love bringing restaurant style aesthetics into the kitchen/dining area.
