If there is one thing I've learned from drowning myself in images from amazing kitchens, its that every good home needs a nook! And in that nook, there should be a total of three things: 1. A good amount of sun light 2. Comfortable chairs for lounging after a long brunch 3. Fresh flowers, lots of them! I absolutely love the breakfast nooks in the images above. I could just imagine spending hours in any one of those nooks: drinking black coffee, reading the paper and eating myself fat on waffles and fruit.

Designers in the early 1900's, especially those in the Craftsmen movement, realized that the "nook" is far better than the "room". Rooms should be composed of nooks opening into a center--and a nook should support no more than 3-4 people, so they can be in "private" without leaving the room--where the rest of the group is. You can also retreat to a nook when you're by yourself, so you don't feel lost in the larger space.
