Re: A Kitchen of Many Materials

Those leather pulls are kinda cool.

The white subway tile keeps it bright.

The wood countertops make it homey. Like the color on those.

 

Would of definitely found something different between the two lights though to look at while at the sink. 

 

Also, not a fan of keeping stuff out, taking up counter space, so I would of put in a couple of those short shelves and not just one. Or, use the cabinet to the right of the stove. Nothing would be on that counter there, except the pot and the utensil holder.

 

Hmmm, think I would of painted the window trim the same color as the cabinets and lose the ducks and that calender/clock thing. And, done drop lights more in a similar finish and style as the wall lights.

It is tile- not a rug.

Don't care for the sink or the butcher block - everything else is ok - Yes, as someone asked, how do you clean those cabinet pulls?

The tile - like

 

Butcher block - hate

 

Leather pulls - hate

 

Brick - like, but not in this kitchen

Re: A Kitchen of Many Materials

I like the butcher block table, but not for my house. 

 

I have to have more cabinets than that.  Like upper cabinets. I need upper cabinets. 

 

Don't care for the leather pulls at all. They’ll be filthy in a week. 

 

And when it comes to cabinets, I just like regular wood with a normal stain on it. I don’t care for colored cabinets. 

 

I like the sink though. 

 

 


Why is it, when I have a 50/50 guess at something, I'm always 100% wrong?

I like it especially the sink and floor. Not crazy about the leather pulls though.

I like the small space, and the layout, but the color is a big NO and I don’t like the many materials.

Thanks for the photos.

 

Like the overall look, could happily live there with two changes, the leather pulls, and the butcher block counter tops.  I would be wary of those pulls with my wet, sometimes greasy, or pastry covered hands.  Have had butcher block and it did not survive my usage well!
