A Modern Deco style upgrade can be just what your outdated kitchen needs - Image Source Style by Emily Henderson.

This galley kitchen has had a complete Modern Deco makeover from Style by Emily Henderson. The true star of this gorgeous kitchen is the graphic patterned floor tile that ties in beautifully with the soft blue-grey cabinets. The toe-kicks under the cupboards were recessed a few inches more than usual in order to show off more of the trendy floor tiles and to give the space a wider appearance. The matte grey subway tiles really pop against the bright white grout. Don't forget to install a large open farm sink for easy clean-ups and bling it out with classy brass hardware.

Lovely French doors open up onto your garden and large tandem pocket glass wall doors can close off or open up the space to the rest of your home.
