Stunning Coastal Kitchen Makes the Most of Breathtaking Views
Perched above the sparkling waters of Puget Sound, this Seattle coastal kitchen by Cohesively Created proves that good design is about more than function, it’s about creating a space that feels both inspiring and welcoming. With walls of windows framing serene water and evergreen views, the kitchen offers an ever-changing natural backdrop that rivals the best artwork. Yet, the interior design itself is equally captivating, blending timeless craftsmanship with a fresh coastal palette.
A Bold Use of Color and Texture
At the heart of the design is the striking turquoise herringbone tile backsplash. Its glossy finish captures and reflects light, adding movement and depth to the room while introducing a bold splash of color. Paired with soft blue cabinetry, the look feels modern yet timeless, with just enough vibrancy to echo the Pacific Northwest’s coastal tones. Brass hardware adds warmth and contrast, catching the eye without overpowering the design.
Balancing Warmth and Cool
To ground the cool blues and greens, the designer introduced natural wood tones throughout the kitchen. The island, crafted from warm wood cabinetry, anchors the space, while plank wood flooring unifies every element. The interplay of warm and cool materials strikes a perfect balance of fresh style and comfortable living. Overhead, rustic wood ceiling beams bring in texture and architectural interest, tying together the modern and natural elements seamlessly. A pair of globe pendant lights finish the look while natural wood bar stools cozy up to the island.
A Kitchen Built for Gathering
More than just beautiful, this kitchen is designed for everyday living and entertaining. The oversized island doubles as both prep space and a casual gathering spot, complete with sculptural wood stools. A built-in banquette and sleek tulip table create a cozy breakfast nook with prime water views. Meanwhile, thoughtful storage solutions—like glass-front cabinets and a built-in beverage cooler—ensure that function never takes a back seat to form.
Coastal Kitchen with Form and Function
