While it’s somewhat dark and qualifies as a drab color (in the Victorian sense of muted vs. dull) it’s a stunning alternative to either gray or natural-wood tones in this 9 x 13-foot galley kitchen that opens into a dining room. The eating bar-side of the island [above] is 42-inches high with seating for two on Meyer Square bar stools from Pottery Barn. The height of this counter screens out the standard 36-inch tall section on the working side that houses the sink. The actual color is custom (from Live Oak Cabinetry) but easily matched since gray-green choices have multiplied due to their popularity for a better part of a decade. Lightly figured Carrara marble counters look modern against the earth tones – and no wonder – while they  pick up the grey of the Viking appliances, Rohl pot filler faucet over the stove, and the stainless steel backsplash.  (Source: Home 12/05)]]> http://www.atticmag.com/2009/11/terra-green-kitchen/feed/ 2 http://www.atticmag.com/2008/11/lavender-subway-tile-kitchen/ http://www.atticmag.com/2008/11/lavender-subway-tile-kitchen/#comments Thu, 20 Nov 2008 23:12:56 +0000 Jane F /?p=1775 The amazing color of this bespoke kitchen is handled beautifully by designer Christopher Peacock. Pale gray-lavender subway tiles are fortified by the stronger lavender wall and window color, and then tied into Carrara marble counters which have an elegant ogee edge that also rims the custom marble sink.

Stained maple, used as the drip rail for the sink, ties perimeter cabinets into the butcher-block island counter top made of checkerboard end-cut maple and walnut, in the English manner.

Look up to see over-the-sink pendant lights hanging from plaster ceiling rosettes. The high ceiling permitted the addition of a handsome over-window display shelf. This is another early clip from my remodeling notebook. The pro-style work table and rugged Viking dishwasher remain a mix that endures.
