While designer Heather Hill’s client gave the Bath Kitchen and Tile designer few requirements, the home itself led Hill to her aesthetic. “The owner has a very eclectic taste,” Hill explained. “Her house has a lot of different things.”
To complement the home and the homeowner, while also keeping resale in mind, Hill created a neutral design with a touch of flair.
The white-painted cabinetry’s inset doors give the kitchen a more traditional slant meant to stay in style for many years and appeal to any potential homebuyers.
A traditional mantle hood establishes the kitchen’s focal point.
“When you walk in the kitchen from any other area in the home, the hood is the first thing you see,” Hill explained.
Decorative drawers on the backside, a lazy Susan corner and baseboard molding complete the peninsula area, one of the few requirements the owner had.
Made up of 4-in. by 4-in. crème tiles, the backsplash has a subtle pillowing effect for detail.
The black-and-white veiling in the granite counters contrasts against the backsplash.
The porcelain tile floor mimics the look of stone without the maintenance.
The purple bar stools give the kitchen a dash of bright color.
