Grey and natural in the kitchen..

 

I thought it might be nice to ease into the weekend with a beautiful kitchen image.  I love the softness of the cabinetry and the contrast of the natural wood- um and the floor is fabulous!

Have an amazing Friday...

Grey and black kitchen...

 

I love this little snippit of a kitchen.  That light is fabulous with the simple shaker cabinetry and black counters.

Grey in my kitchen

 

Our kitchen has been finished for just about a year now and we love love it.  I am so excited to be able to share some of the beautiful photos that Ashlee took for us while she was here.  The way she photographs is so so amazing!  Just the right feeling for my design style.

I am so excited to share the finished product with you first!

Greige kitchen with marble...

 

Okay I am in love.  I love the mix of metals//the stone//the greige cabinets//the stone.... oh did I say that twice.  I adore this mix with the marble as the back splash, perfection.

Designers at home.. life in flux

 

So sorry for the silence for the past few days... it has been a little wild here and this coming week is going to make last week look like a cake walk!  We finally had some photos taken, by a real professional, last week and I snapped a few myself which could never compare!  But the kitchen was styled and the house was clean so it is always a good idea to check and see what will be seen through the lens..  I was thinking about it though and I realized that I, like I am sure many designers, live in a constant state of change.  We are always changing this or that - a chair here- pillows everywhere - accessories like crazy!  (I really do feel bad for my husband but what can you do!)  So this is my still my first table and chairs since the remodel in the kitchen... something new is coming though.

How about you- are you a changer/exchanger throughout the house?

For those who asked the chairs can be found here/the table is custom. :)

Dark grey in the kitchen..

 

I love the dark details in this kitchen it makes it feel so warm and welcoming.  Usually I love the light filled kitchen but this seems so much more fall to me.  Beautiful!

simple greige

 

I love the simple clean lines of this home..  The floor makes me smile.. and just how clean and easy it all seems.  The texture is just enough and the dark grout in the backsplash keeps the tile from being too white.. perfect.

Dark grey and brass in the kitchen...

 

I love the clean lines of this kitchen, the brass keeps it from being modern and the light is so perfect in letting the size of the island really be seen.  I also love the styling with the mass of artichoke on the wood top!

light grey in the kitchen

 

Wishing you a wonderful Saturday!  

I love that this kitchen has just the slightest bit of contrast so the really dark pieces have center stage and it keeps the stone and tile from being too busy.  Perfectly calming.

chevron back splash

 

Hello, so we are sporting the new look and I am loving the change of pace around here.  It feels refreshing.  

We have an empty kitchen now and have seen the plumber, electrician, and cabinet maker in a matter of just a few days.  Today they will start putting in the new cabinets and I cannot wait to see it all in action.  I will try to update my instagram with some snap shots of everything if your interested.  I am still undecided on the back splash style, I love this chevron pattern but I am afraid I would get bored of it and long for something a little simpler.  We have chosen the Chenille Vein Cut Limestone for the back splash but the sizing is very modern at 36" long.  I think we will be cutting them down to 4" x 9" tiles and running them more like a subway tile.   Any thoughts?  What do you have in your kitchen?

greige and white kitchen..

 

It was nice to take a day to rest this weekend because this week is going to get moving quickly!  We are starting our renovation this week on the kitchen finally and I am excited, I would be more excited if I did not own four million glasses that I have to wrap up!!!  I know that I am obsessed with glassware and apparently bowls but really I did not know I was that bad (note to self: do not buy any more glasses).  Aside from that I am still undecided on a color for the cabinets and the walls, I will try to get some pictures up to get your opinion on them  this week.

So I thought I would start the week off with some pictures of what my kitchen does not look like to give us all some inspiration about the subject.  

Happy Monday!

Kitchen redo.. little details

 

We are knee deep in decisions for the kitchen remodel here at home and I am finding more and more things that I love..  The detail on the interior of this cabinet is so pretty! I love the color with the dark exterior finish, I want it.   I have also been looking for tables and this one makes my heart skip a beat the twist on the original makes me so want it too... humm.

 What do you think?  I am hoping that next week I will have more time to put together some posts that are more interesting!!  When I have presentations and installations back to back it seems to use up all of my creative powers!

a fresh look..

 

When I first came across this home it was the kitchen that caught my eye, but I love fresh use of purple with the grey.  I had two cabinets similar to these built on either side of my fireplace and I am trying to figure out which paint colors I want to use.  Do I go grey to match the kitchen island and then a slightly lighter or darker shade of the same for the walls?  Or do I use a creamy white as the backdrop?

The other think I love about this space is the mix- lately I have been loving the mix of modern in with a more relaxed country vibe.  What do you think?

Modern country kitchen..

 

This is such a great kitchen.  I cannot decide if I like the lowered eating areas that are so popular right now off of the islands.  What do you think?  I think this one is well done and the stools make it!

On a quick note- I was so excited that Pinterest came out with their new IPad app- if you have not tried it you should, it is very wonderful!
