A Contemporary Kitchen & Family Room
October 31, 2019

I am so excited to show you these design boards!

This client requested a bold, contemporary style kitchen. Currently, the kitchen cabinets are cherry, and the overall style is very traditional. We want to lighten and brighten the dark and dated kitchen. The color gray is still hot, therefore I suggested they paint the cabinets a light gray, and I am loving the gorgeous glass tile for the backsplash. However, the wood kitchen table will keep this kitchen from feeling too cold with all of the cool colors and tones in the design.



How fun is that sputnik chandelier? They seem to be very popular right now. I can’t wait to see these blue glass pendants that will be installed over the island. Above all, my client loves blue and yellow, and I am giving them some bold punches of color throughout the kitchen and family room.

The outdated family room is also getting a fresh coat of light gray paint to lighten and brighten the space. I am loving the bold art that will go on a wall behind the sofa. These fun, modern pillows will tie in all the colors.

I am bringing in a new sectional sofa, art and accessories to this room to make it the bold, contemporary space my client wants to have. I can’t wait for these items to arrive and show you the completed spaces.
