Floating…

If you’ve ever seen Siematic cabinetry, you’ve seen pretty... Every last detail is carefully considered.

In one of their recent ads I spotted this interesting little detail – mirrored kick plates. These could be the real-deal or plexi-mirror, but surely a very different take on the everyday variety. I love how the mirrors make the cabinets float up off the floor. And what about the metal mirrored uppers? Very Hollywood glam.

The only drawback besides another surface to clean, is a dual reflection of any dust bunnies. Not that I ever have any…

Spotted such a lovely article on you in "American Lifestyle" and love your style. I also think about the cleaning factor and dust bunnies when designing.
Pretty mirrors - and how clever to use them on a kick plate.

Now that is a gorgeous kitchen! Love the mirrored uppers as well and the chandeliers give a modern asthetic. So pretty!

I can see this kitchen followed by a powder room with a venetian mirror to carry the mirrored elements through the home.
