When designing a kitchen we need to remember it’s the heart of the home. So here are a few tips on how to make your kitchen beautiful and comfortable for your family:

– We love this warm gray wall color. It keeps the space feeling comfortable without being too “cold”.
– Marble is stunning and is a timeless material except it has one tiny flaw, its not durable! So putting it as your backslash will give the space that elegance, keeping your kitchen more sustainable.
-Dark islands are a great way to add one of the major principles to interior design; proportion and scale. Having the dark island in the kitchen shown above illustrates this perfectly.
– When picking out finishes we tend to pick the same all across the board, which is a NO NO! Change it up on your lighting, island hardware, or upper cabinets. This will make all your friends say “wow, I never thought of that before”.
– Another key principles to interior design is Harmony. Harmony is created when all elements act together to create a unified message. Mimic the change in cabinet color and change your counter tops. In other words, this makes it look like you did it on purpose!
– Durable seating. This is a great way to make sure your space is comfortable for you and your guests, you don’t want them to sense your discomfort when they sit on your white linen counter stools sipping red wine! It works perfectly with the higher end finishes blending a comfortable elegance environment.
