17 Light-Filled Modern Kitchens by Mal Corboy

Designer Mal Corboy has a talent for infusing kitchen spaces with the perfect balance of light and dark elements, warm and stark textures and  natural and ambient light. You'll find in his 17 kitchens we feature here, there is not one dark nor neglected corner to be found. From a minimalist kitchen made more by a hint of LED lights to a brilliant pink number made even more vibrant with a light-infusing backsplash window, there are many ideas to be found and used in your home kitchen remodel or new build.
