My Project
Bright Blue and White Kitchen - I like the blue and the bright white. I would prefer more detail in the island cabinet doors (as in slightly different than rest of cabinets) I would probably prefer a different color faucet though it does tie nicely to the cabinet pulls. Interesting that two different color pulls were used and does look nice. might get tired of the gold though but so nice here. I would prefer a different light fixture. I also like the light color backsplash which keeps the whole thing light with the emphasis on the blue island.
Lakewood Remodel.
Franklin tile with white cabinets
Franklin - I like the herringbone pattern here. Don't know whether it's the movement or slight color. I like other backsplash tiles too but don't think I've picked herringbone before. Might be harder to keep clean though!

Carlsbad - Like the sink, the vent cover the use of all white cabinets with dark on exterior and light counter top on island. Light fixtures over island, recessed lights nice too.
Pacific Heights Renovation - Entry way - just marked because of the pretty way light bounces. Probably nasty to keep clean but maybe you could use a hair dryer and blow it off!
Similar concept to what we are discussing. Counter is thick quartz slab. I would like more color in the slab. Trim at top of cabinets is similar to that in our house and I believe is reflected on the hood cover ( if not here elsewhere I saw today).
Pretty simple tile backsplash but nice with white and soapstone.
I like the look of soapstone but understand it is not as easy to care for as other materials.
John and I like this one for the mix of white shaker cabinets with simple lines and the walnut island which is very pretty and ties to their kitchen table. John prefers the circular pendants to the boxy ones in some other kitchens. I agree with him. This is Alexis & Pete's Kitchen addition. The counter on the island is lighter than that on the white cabinets.
Tile looks pretty creamy in color here. I notice in some photos that I am drawn to tile with some reflectivity. This might help brighten things in our room.
When you look from this angle you can see that the countertops are not as dark as they look from other angles and do contrast nicely without being too dark.
Layout looks similar to ours, with large entry to family room to right of cabinets in the is view.
I like this one too, with the white cabinets and darker countertop. Looks great together with black accents.
Interesting that the sink color is tied to the island counter top. I also see wicker baskets peaking out of the island which is a light wood - more like the floors. It is not fussy.
Very dramatic!
I can like dark counter tops too.
Pendants, light color with warm woods.
I do like blue.
OLD NOYAC PATH, NOYAC, NY I like other photos from this house too. I would have thought it was too much white but I like it here with the SS and black finishes.
I like this one too. It is more open that my kitchen, with more light. It is bright and calming. Interesting pendants. Like vent.
Just like the calm room.
White cabinets, painted island - something to consider.
I tagged this one because the island is painted and want to show to John.
Not fond of the lights over the sink. This area could use something softer. The pendants over the island seem to work here but I wouldn't have thought of them.
I was surprised to find I liked this one which is very light throughout, excluding the floor, and has a pattern on the tile extending high
I always like walnut. I see this is the wood type. Color of paint mentioned in article. Studio Green - Farrow and Ball
Not sure. Color of cabinets, interesting light, use of wood island and shelves.
Walnut Court - Like the cabinet color with light gray floors.
