Custom Primitive Cabinets For A Southern Ohio Log Home

A Log Cabin Gets A Custom Kitchen With Primitive Cabinets

Our client's home is a reproduction log cabin tucked away in the woods of Southern Ohio. Built in the 1990s, the home had a generic kitchen that no longer matched the rustic, early-American feel they desired. The homeowners sought a custom kitchen designer who could create a kitchen that complemented the authentic style of their log cabin, filled with antique and collectible items.

Period Designs Company specializes in creating kitchens that honor the traditions of early American and primitive-style design. We were able to craft a custom kitchen that seamlessly integrates with the log cabin's rustic charm. The key elements of this project were carefully tailored to blend with the home’s unique features.

Custom Kitchen Design Features

  • Primitive-style cabinetry designed to match the home's rustic aesthetic

  • Custom cabinet color matched to the log cabin’s original trim

  • Inset doors and a glass accent cabinet featuring repurposed historic wavy glass

  • True divided light glass doors for an authentic early-American look

  • Accent shelf under the cabinets for added style

  • Under-cabinet lighting to highlight beautiful granite countertops

  • Custom sink design perfectly fitting the cabinet layout

One of the unique challenges we faced was the client’s original hardwood flooring, which was no longer available. The flooring was installed after the cabinets, so we designed the cabinets to fit perfectly around the new hardwood flooring. This thoughtful design ensures a seamless, cohesive look throughout the kitchen.

Creating a Kitchen That Feels Like It’s Always Been There

The combination of custom primitive cabinets, inset doors, glass accents, and under-cabinet lighting created a kitchen that feels like it’s always been part of the home. The design harmonizes beautifully with the log cabin’s rustic features and the client's collection of antiques, ensuring the kitchen both serves its functional purpose and preserves the home’s historic charm.
