“The legs of the island are a style setter for the overall look of the kitchen,” Fortier says. The choice of rugged iron, elegantly curved, enabled her to add a different texture and material to the room and its clear-coated maple flooring. “Kitchens in general have too much wood in them,” she says. “Whenever I can introduce an element outside of wood, I do.” Using the iron in such a graceful way also was instrumental “in avoiding the quintessential farmhouse country look,” Fortier adds. The iron was left raw “to take it almost into the industrial handcrafted element” but rubbed with beeswax so it won’t rust.Ironwork: custom design by Jacqueline Fortier Design, fabricated by CNC Metalcraft
8. Sliding doors. Barn-style doors on a sliding track have become a very popular choice for interior doors, both as a functional solution in tight spaces and as a style statement. Now they’re starting to pop up more and more in kitchen cabinets as a fun way to create a gallery-case look.A sliding door on a set of uppers combines the appeal of open shelves with the tidiness of a classic door cabinet, and it works in farmhouse style kitchens and modern spaces alike. Plus, not having to swing a door open and shut will make your kitchen feel just a bit bigger, and it makes a world of difference when two cooks are in the kitchen.Find barn-door hardware

3. Industrial lighting. It’s not often that the adjectives “rough” and “imperfect” are sought-after qualities. However, light fixtures with an industrial edge certainly make a good case. Nowadays, we find old-fashioned warehouse pendants being plucked straight from an actual warehouse and dropped directly above a kitchen island.Find industrial lighting
