designer guys does ikea

more tube inspiration from julie (thanks again, girl!). they don't use ikea often, usually preferring more high-end stuff, but in this episode, the designer guys gave this kitchen - part located in a basement and away from the dining area - a gorgeous bistro inspired kitchen and dining makeover.

only the wall cabinets, shelves, wine shelves with butcher block counter top, and antique doors are from ikea. but it goes to show, if you pair your ikea well, it can come off looking like a million bucks. the reds and browns are simply gorgeous.

  1. oh cool, glad you included them! designer guys rock, I love Allen, he's hot. they tend to go for lots of high end and they do with the light fixture here.... it's a simone and ciccone (well known designers in canada) and it's probably worth $3K (unreal!)....but the cabinets and kitchen stuff are ikea. I can't wait for the new season on HGTV, I hope they air in the US and UK, too

    1. Hi Hans
      The link was changed on the designerguys' site.
      You can still find it - go to http://dgiii.com/, click on episodes and locate Season 1, Ep 7 - Bistro Kitchen.
