Turquoise Tile Kitchen

December 16, 2009 by Jane F 3 Comments

overview of turquoise tile mexican style kitchen - Jean Stoffer Design via AtticmagLong a fashion color, turquoise tile creates a clear “statement kitchen.”

The spirit of Mexican and rustic California Mission architecture is embodied in this turquoise tile kitchen which combines vivid color of semi-precious stones  – declared “color of the year” for 2010 by Pantone – with the warm reddish browns of  Mexico’s natural Saltillo tiles.

Opposite is a Wolf range beneath a sculptural chimney hood supported by wood corbels with a knockout turquoise glazed-tile range guard distinguished by a herringbone-pattern medallion. Perimeter cabinets of knotty alder have wrought iron pulls and are topped with granite that incorporates the rust and aqua palette.

Flamboyant and highly figured “Van Gogh” granite was given an ogee edge and used on the kitchen counters as it contains both the color of the tile as well as the browns of the cabinets and floor.

I love the rich patina on these floors.

    I can provide the name of the designer, which is Jean Stoffer Design
    http://www.jeanstofferdesign.com/index2.php#/home/

    Perhaps her office will provide you with the source for the turquoise tile.

    The counters look a lot like van Gogh granite. I expect the designer’s office can confirm that as well. Googling van gogh granite will provide sources if the designer doesn’t care to share.
