dark and light contrast

Q

floor and cabinets

Q

Photo

Would we want to add more noticeable color (walls, lighting) like this?

Q

Jodi, is this the dark wood you like? I could live with this - nice simple backsplash and could carry the dark wood throughout. Still, a bit more closed in overall.

Q

Photo

Floors are nice. Combination with the white cabinets and black counters is great - TJ

Q

Nothing fancy here -- just a basic design that is functional and would work for me - TJ

Q

Again, Tony likes the white cabinets with the dark peninsula. Nice variety in cabinet styles.

Q

Nice contrast w/ darker floors and counters to go w/ white cabinets. Like the basic backsplash w/ white brick size tiles.

Q

Photo

Again, simple/clean design seems like it would remain in style no matter what is trendy -- except would make counters darker. Notice glass cabinet -- nice touch.

Q

Tony likes these different contrasting colors for various parts -- white/gray walls, dark brown cabinets, lighter floor, tile up the wall.

Q

Photo

White cabinets with glass/lights in uppers, like discussed w/ Northrup

Q

Photo

I like this if we wanted to run the same wood styling through both rooms. Good contrast w/ counter.

Q

Photo

Clean, basic look would likely look good regardless of trends.

Q

Love the white cabinet w/ brown island combo.

Q

Cool floor color

Dark wood tone Tony doesn't hate. Jodi, you like this?

Dark wood tone Tony doesn't hate. Jodi, is this what you like?

Q

Nice color combo (except the mini tile backsplash). Rounded penninsula is an interesting idea.

Q

Good color combination - though not sure about the half and half approach -TJ

Q

Photo

Color combination is nice

Q

Similar to our idea for layout (U-shaped kitchen w/ peninsula)
