"To incorporate the old-world feel she was after, Teresa painted the walls. And she actually painted directly over top of white textured wallpaper that was already in the space - although in a perfect world, Teresa says she'd do this project over a blank wall. It's a limewash paint, Kalklitir; the color is called Elle."
"She also wanted a mix of modern elements and vintage pieces. After replacing the old floors with wood, Teresa, whose style leans more minimalist and modern, wanted to keep everything flat - no upper cabinets so you don't accumulate more than you really need."
"It's an antique workbench. I bought it many years ago for €300. Over time, it's served every purpose you can imagine - it's been a desk, a bookshelf - but I love it most in the kitchen as a work surface and herb shelf."
Teresa Rudolph transformed her kitchen by applying limewash paint over existing textured wallpaper to achieve a vintage, worldly aesthetic that complements her minimalist modern style. She used Kalklitir limewash paint in the color Elle and recommends diluting it with water for easier application over textured surfaces. The kitchen design emphasizes flat, open spaces without upper cabinets to minimize clutter. She incorporated vintage elements, including an antique workbench purchased years ago for €300 that now serves as a work surface and herb shelf. The combination of limewash walls, wooden floors, and vintage furnishings creates a cohesive blend of modern and old-world design elements.
