How the odd couple got their perfect IKEA kitchen
In a way, Jamie and Anthony are the Odd Couple of design. (We can’t speak to their tidiness habits however).
Anthony likes high-gloss doors and shiny surfaces. He definitely got what he was looking for with the high-gloss white RINGHULT doors from IKEA and LANSA handles.
Jamie, however, understood she was working with a country-style home. For this reason we’ll say she’s the Felix Unger, or neatnik of the duo! She really wanted to keep the kitchen look aligned with the look of the rest of the house.
That makes Anthony the fun-loving member of the Odd Couple, Oscar Madison. He’s not bound by the rules and order of traditional decorating!
That left it to Jamie to figure out how to incorporate the shiny with the country. “I had to figure out how to tone down the high-gloss so it didn’t look like a high-rise condo in Miami.”
