Unfortunately my builder doesn't allow hardwood to be installed in wet areas, including the kitchen. This was a bit of a let down because the first floor of my new place (shown below) has an open floor plan and I want the flooring to all be the same so it's cohesive throughout.
All is well though because I have a new plan and it looks like...
2. I'm pairing the espresso cabinets with stainless hardware from IKEA.
3. I'm not sure if these floor tiles are going to be the exact ones I'm getting (I haven't seen the options yet) but I'm going to look for something similar. I'd like 12" x 24" tiles instead of 12" x 12" ones for more of a modern feel.
4. A bright striped runner will help add a little punch of color in an overall neutral space.
5. I'll have a little snack bar/island area now and what does every island need? Barstools! 3 to be exact :)
6. What else does a snack bar/island area need? Pendant lights! 2 to be exact :)
7. In case the espresso cabinets turn out to be darker than I'm imagining, I'm planning on having white Caesarstone countertops installed. Caesarstone or granite, I haven't really decided yet but whatever kind I choose, it'll be white.
8. Last but not least, I'd like to have this Moroccan patterned backsplash installed flush against the counters.
Here are some examples that show a clearer idea of what I'm thinking about:

What do you think? Are you excited as I am? I can't wait to choose everything!
I love the new plan even better! It's such a fresh look.
