Earlier this year, we told you about Martha Stewart's partnership with KB Home to create pre-fab houses. Some of KB Home's customers in Florida can now get a taste of the domestic diva's kitchen style with Martha Stewart Built to Order Kitchens, a collaboration between the custom home builder and Martha Stewart Living Omnimedia.
While money could never buy Martha's perfect taste or her chef-worthy kitchen skills, home buyers in communities in Tampa and Orlando have the option of choosing one of the Stewart-inspired offerings for their Built to Order KB home.
The three styles available are Katonah, Skylands and Lily Pond. All three are named for and based on Stewart's kitchens at her homes in New York and Maine.
George Glance, president of KB Home's Central Florida division, said in a company statement that, "By offering these exceptional designs in our communities as part of KB Home's Built to Order experience, more of our homeowners will have the chance to incorporate Martha's incomparable style and functionality into one of the most important spaces of the home--the kitchen."

Now, if only KB Home could figure out a way to get Martha to come decorate, so that the Built To Order Kitchens could look like one of Martha's own kitchens, like the one at Skylands (above).

ReplyNotice the lack of doors or bars on most shelves. Guess she doesn't like that locked up feeling in the kitchen, too.

OH, REALLY !!!
Does she not believe in color?
ReplyVery antiseptic. All dishes and glasses exposed, you'l have to wash them frequently. Yes they are boring!
Replynice, neat, clean.....but not a good idea if you have young children...
Replyi can see it now.....one by one the plates, etc being pulled off
the shelf and of course breaking................
Looks nice I guess, but unless you use those dishes and bowls often, I would think they'd be full of dust, etc., but I'm sure Martha has a team of "lackeys" to do the dusting for her!
ReplyAlthough I LOVE MARTHA, it has become quite obvious that she only COOKS in her kitchens. After all, who matches and arranges all those dishes in the glass cabinets, and who washes the dishes that have been left out to collect dust? Sorry, Martha! You should have called in a qualified kitchen designer ....
ReplyI have enjoyed an "open kitchen" in other house I've owned. The one I currently have does not have an "open shelve" design. I really miss open shelves. I would like a kitchen to be practical, functional, and interesting. Not always in that order, but its just got to function and be practical. Most nights you are in a hurry or its just more convenient to "grab" the plate ,pan, etc. and go. I'm an organized person so this design works for me (open design). Note: It can be a disicipline) I do relate that some of us just like to hide things behinds doors. Its your kitchen, make it work for you not what some magazine or person tell you. Enjoy that space! It can be functioning art, think about it. Let it relfect who you are or who or want to portray??!! Life is short enjoy what you can!!
ReplyDeserves a Mr. yuck sticker. Looks like a hospital
ReplyBoring!!! Needs some color, but I guess she likes things that look like her.
