In addition to following the advice for flow/function: Large single bowl sink single handle faucet outlets everywhere dimmable LED under cabinet lighting full extension drawer glides drawers, drawers and more drawers - SO much better than getting down on the floor to move stuff around and try to pull something out large hood with high CFM one-level counter height slab on island - love all the space for prep and serving 15" overhang for seating on island (fabricator wanted to do 12", I insisted on 15" and I'm so glad I stood my ground) hidden steel support brackets to support the 15" overhang (no wasted space or knocking knees on unsightly corbels) ETA: stealing from miranda33 since I forgot to add - drawer insert for knives (love it!! no more bulky block on the counter) and from lhutch13 - pull out trash (2 cans, one for garbage and one for recyclables) - no more ugly trash can taking up floor space replacing old cans with LEDs - so much brighter and more efficient with no heat output like the old bulbs

Can’t do open shelving and hate yellow, but like the unmatched red and orange cabinets.

Q

Photo

LOVE this look , especially floor. Would satisfy H w/ having both tamer backsplash and granite countertops. BUT, cabinets way too light. Picture this w/ cabinets in grey tone (or darker brown? Red island? Two tone?)

Q

Photo

Style too traditional, but like red color and glass insets (would want frost to hide contents)

Q

Photo

like cabinet color - could increase streamlined look with hardware that blends in even more (less contrast).

Q

Photo

Yes to flat panel cabinets tho this is too dark and stark. Think we will need to break up expanse w/ some glass front cabinets

Q

Photo

Too dark, but like Red countertop and mixed cabinets

Q

Photo
Photo

like mix of Mexican colors/accents and modern

Q

Photo
Photo

Red/orange cabinets - best color tone I’ve seen. Not too farmhouse

Q

Definitely want drawers like this in cabinet bank

Q

Photo

If we keep the peach/travertine floors ....

Q

Photo

Circle cabinet hardware!

Q

Photo

Maybe recess the final cabinet that abuts the sliding glass door?

Q

Photo

Island set-up (need to decide if eating space should be higher than work surface — bar stool height OR lower like a table as in this pic).

Q

Photo

Backsplash (not sure if it is tile or maybe wallpaper)

Q

Photo

Backsplash -- love the organic shapes and multi-colors

Q

Photo

Close-up.... could be matched w/ neutral subway

Q

Photo

Bubble Tile! Yes

Q

Photo

Tile work — love asymmetry, but don’t know about squares .....everything in the kitchen is square

Q

Photo

Ombré backsplash—

Q

Photo

Ombré ..... could work for backsplash?

Q

Photo

Love love this backsplash (and cabinet color) but know this is custom and this mosaic would be crazy-hard to clean.

Q

Curvy backsplash tile (Ann Sacks Beau Monde)

Q

Photo

Wonder if this herringbone can be done in brighter colors?

Q

Photo

Backsplash- cool idea with subway tile (not sure about mixing it w/ high-pattern counters.)

Q

Photo

Multi-tone cabinets

Q

Photo

grey floors and grey two toned cabinet scheme Darker upper cabinets darken the space.

Q

Photo

Maybe brown is OK? Need hardware on flat panels.

Q

Shape of island top!

Q

Photo

Dark grey floor, lighter cabinets, colored backsplash

Q

Photo

Red cabinets

Q

Photo

warm grey w/ texture and wood tones

Q

Photo

Red cabinets for island Love this.

Q

Photo

Backsplash/Tilework

Q

Photo

If we have to do brown, cabinet color OK (maybe a bit too dark) against red wall paint and colorful backsplash

Q

Photo

Really the combo of streamlined cabinets and Moroccan/subdued Mexican-style backsplash. Maybe I should ditch the red cabinet idea.

Q

Photo

like island shape, breaks up rectangle

Q

Photo

Brown? Will better match existing cabinetry in great room and can maybe keep current flooring Like this if need to go w/ brown, but want some color in tile

Q
