Open Shelves

Elizabeth Boland · Jun 27, 2012 ·

One of the things I love most about my job is working on kitchens. While helping clients design their dream kitchen I am also living vicariously through them. Everyone loves a beautiful kitchen, but a  practical kitchen is just as important. A home with a family of two verse a family of six will have a tremendous impact on the way a kitchen is designed. If you have four teenage boys, odds are you are not going to have open shelves. Personally I am the type who would literally have to go through and line up all the bowls plates and glassware with a ruler every morning before I went to work. Needless to say this look is no where in my future, which is why it is so much fun designing a kitchen with open shelving for someone else.

About Elizabeth Boland

I am a wife, Mom, and an Interior Designer. I love my job, and I love the fact that I get to work with one of my best friends. My Mom and I are partners in our Washington DC based design firm, Wilson Boland Design. In January 2010, we opened an Interior Design Studio in downtown Bethesda, which has evolved just as much as our business!

I started Haute Indoor Couture in the spring of 2011 to share portfolio pictures, inspiring ideas, and fellow designers with our clients and friends. I live for Interior Design and I love sharing my passion and enthusiasm with my readers. Most of the content you will find here is interior design, architecture, fashion, or canine related.
