Culinary Color
Kitchens are excellent spaces to illuminate with light and bright color. These tend to be creative and social rooms where a lively mood is often preferred and can be accentuated with vibrant hues.
With all the different surfaces and elements–cabinets, counters, walls, appliances–you have a variety of ways to incorporate various colors or temper accent brights with more subdued tones.
Tile is not only wonderfully functional in a kitchen, it also offers greater possibilities for color expression. Plus, I love the aspect of texture it provides. Recycled, reclaimed and tile made of sustainable materials are earth-conscious options. Anything from cork to recycled glass to recycled highways can be reborn as counters and backsplashes–pretty neat-o!
