Kitchen Think: A Guide to Design and Construction, from Refurbishing to Renovation. Author, Nancy R. Hiller
For two decades, Nancy Hiller has made a living by turning limitations into creative, lively and livable kitchens for her clients. Her new book, Kitchen Think, is an invitation to learn from both her completed kitchen designs (plus kitchens from a few others) and from the way she works in her Bloomington, Ind., workshop.Unlike most kitchen design books, Kitchen Think is a woodworkers guide to designing and furnishing the kitchen, from a down-to-the-studs renovation to refacing existing cabinets. And she shows you how it can be done without spending a fortune or adding significantly to your local landfill. The first requirement is simply to think," Hiller writes, "where you are in life; what resources you have access to in terms of money, interesting materials, or time; the architectural style of your home and so forth.
Yes, there are hundreds of pretty full-color photos of well-designed kitchens, which are organized into 24 case studies throughout the book. They range from the sculptural (kitchens by Johnny Grey and Wharton Esherick) to kitchens of a more recognizable form.But theres also a heavy dose of practical instruction: how to build cabinets efficiently, how to make a basic kitchen island, how to build a wall-hung plate rack. Plus butt-saving advice that comes only from experience like how to maximize space in inside corners, how to scribe cabinets and countertops into odd spaces and how to make sure youve left ample space for hardware. All of this is built on a foundation of research into kitchens from the past. Hillers historical perspective on design might just change your mind about what makes a good kitchen.
Kitchen Think is printed in full color on coated, 80# matte paper. It has a printed hardbound cover, coated in a durable matte laminate. The binding is sewn, and covered with a fiber-reinforced tape spine to last for generations. Like all Lost Art Press books, Kitchen Think is produced and printed entirely in the United States.
