Integrated/Undermount Sink
Glass tile backsplash
Extend countertop slightly in order to create more functional area for seating – serving as additional seating for meals with guests, as well as for working on homework with kids while in the kitchen and working on recipes/blog posts.
Increase storage and organization, especially for homework/school papers
Add chalkboard to pantry for grocery list
Integrate iPad into kitchen – love this hands free usage – up above food and moisture
Love this unique roll out baking station, allowing for additional counter space or kid height seating. Brilliant!!!
Colors – natural woods, aqua, pale turquoise, lime green, gray – soothing sea like colors yet slightly whimsical. Love the light/bright feeling.
