White is a timeless color and pairs well with almost any other color or design element which is why it is still a popular choice for so many areas in the home including this one. Both the kitchen and master bathroom take advantage of this shade and add some visual interest through black hardware which creates a stunning contrast. Dark countertops in both the kitchen and laundry room make a bold statement and a sophisticated flair to each area. Careful attention to detail makes this project a success.

Objective: Design a space that creates a unified home by tying elements together in each space.
The use of contrast in design enhances the beauty of colors used since it naturally draws the eye making it a powerful tool. It is clearly evident in this kitchen space with the white acting as a canvas for the black countertop and custom wood range hood to stand out. This theme is carried into the laundry/mudroom except blue replaces white as the contrasting shade. The warm wood tones make give a relaxed feel to this area as well. White plays another part in this design as it is the main color for the master bathroom creating a clean, fresh atmosphere for the homeowners, a perfect retreat.
