TV Shows around the kitchen.......

By
Real Estate Agent with Keller Williams Realty Atlanta Partners

Some of the most popular tv shows of 2016, portray their characters in the kitchen, displaying the latest trends in kitchen decor.

You can see complete episodes where the main characters spend their time cooking, chatting, arguing or fixing the world in the comfort of their kitchen.

 

Set designers carefully create kitchens, reflecting the life style of the characters, incorporating the latest trends, like they do with hairstyles, clothing and makeup, always trying to catch the consumer’s eye, inviting the viewers to recreate them at home.

You may not see the brands but you will notice how functional they are, how clean and how inviting those kitchens look, creating decorating inspiration among their viewers.

Here are some examples of kitchen trends you can see in TV shows:

  Kitchen TV show Grace and Frankie

 

In "Grace and Frankie" (Netflix) a comedy starring Jane Fonda and Lily Tomlin, you will notice the open shelves, the color blue in the cabinets and the farmhouse kitchen sink. All 2016 kitchen trends.

 

Bing Bang Kitchen scene

Another famous TV show playing around the kitchen is "The Bing Bang Theory", a comedy featuring Kaley Cuoco, Jim Parson and Johnn Galecki and running since 2007.

 

This famous kitchen has an open floor plan, characters move between the couch in the living room and the kitchen, and the butcher block type table sets, the tone for endless science conversations and inspiring the viewers to copy the looks and mix and match similar pieces for their homes.

 

New Girl kitchen

 

In the sitcom "New Girl" with actress Zooey Deschanel, the kitchen has an industrial-look, with stainless steel prep table, vintage steel chairs, a blue accent wall, floating shelves, glass door cabinets and energy efficient stainless steel appliances.

 

 Good Wife kitchen

  

And the winner of TV kitchens that inspired viewers from the very beginning, is the one in the set of the Drama Series “The Good Wife”, this upscale kitchen design has pending lighting, wine refrigerator, Pottery Barn stools, white and gray paint with touches of black and brown.

  

If you feel inspired to make some changes around your kitchen, there is no need to spend thousands of dollars in expensive renovations, often, minor improvements can yield major dividends.

According to Remodeling magazine's annual analysis of cost versus value, a kitchen "face-lift" consisting of painting, refinishing surfaces, and upgrading appliances — will return more than a full redesign.

 

Hope these kitchen ideas will inspire you too.

I've noticed that all TV kitchens seem to have an island or peninsula - a place for our favorite characters to gather around and advance the next plot.
