Whether a sunny summer day or enduring winter weather, dining or playing games on the dark mahogany dining table perfectly balances the charcoal-stained island. Mixing textures and tones throughout the kitchen continues with the oversized chrome open lantern pendants, stainless steel appliances, and cabinetry hardware. The white quatrefoil backsplash adds depth and interest. Wood tones from the flooring juxtapose the barstools.

The counter stools frames are a natural wood-tone that coordinates with the wood flooring. The barstool performance fabric will withstand all future kitchen activities. All the accessories included neutral colors and glass with just a touch of blue to bring in the color without being overstated.

Contrasting and layering timeless neutral fabrics & tile patterns were vital. Mixing modern art & new transitional furnishings without distracting one’s eye allows the new gardens to take precedence. Functional window shades were essential for privacy. With the flick of a switch or Alexa command, the shades are out of sight during the day or easily lowered for afternoon naps in the living room. The window treatments were selected in an off-white to bring in another layer of white again. The window treatments were designed with height to balance the height of the cabinets in the kitchen.

Throughout neutral home decor we add multiple metal finishes such as polished chrome table on the table base and the foyer bench. Polished chrome acts as a natural reflector, much like a mirror. Other finishes are natural blonde woods and charcoal stain on the island and deep ebony stain on the mahogany dining table. Mixing finishes give a sense of depth and interest in a space.
