Hello design experts. Thanks to the community we narrowed down on Taj quartzite and HD amagansett tiles for backsplash.
However we are now confused on which color for the tiles to go with ( sand dune cream or gin white ) and countertop ( white or beige )
Individually we really liked the cream tiles and white Taj, however they seem to clash?
We had finalized creamy upper cabinets, but now open to pure white or Rosemary green. For lower we will have Rosemary green.

Adding the photo of our existing floor tiles, which we wont be able to change atleast in the next 2-3 years. We dont really like them but have accepted to live with them for a few years.

Attaching chatgpt rendition with creamy tiles and the beige Taj and another with all green cabinets.

Note that our kitchen gets minimal natural light. We have recessed lights which are temperature adjustable and will also be adding cabinet underlights.
The kitchen is not big and also has a peninsula next to this.

items include:
-cutting board
-wooden board with handle
-nespresso
-wooden tray
-espresso cup / plate
-bowl for pods

Looking for some advice regarding using porcelain slab tiles as a worktop. I have found these large format tiles, that match pretty much what I need for my kitchen worktops. Thinking this on a ply/mdf base, resin grout and sealed? Would this be an option instead of a more expensive alternative? TIA

My designer asking me to choose the color of my kitchen, anyone can give me some advice? For me I like all beige, will it easily dirty or wood color is more natural?

Before we finalize the build on our house, we want to tweak this kitchen layout bit. Initially we wanted a space for a table but that space ended up being a little tight. So now we're considering moving the perimeter countertops all the way to the corner, and going with a 9x5 island and maybe not even having a space for our table. But then the kitchen would be kind of far away from the pantry. Just looking for any advice or help from anybody with a similar floor plan.

Update: They’re keeping the current floor! Thanks for your input - I was in favor of not making a change.

My parents are redoing their home and one change will be the kitchen flooring. My mom sent me two flooring options that she isn’t quite sure about.

Neither of the options seem quite right to me either, so I wanted to asked for feedback. What color or style of vinyl would you suggest?

Picture one shows the current options. The rest of the pictures show the kitchen and surrounded area. Thanks for your time!

I am looking to purchase and install sliding drawers for my cabinets to replace the shelves. There are so many options of producers of custom drawers to choose from! Any recommendations? I'd like something sturdy too.

I am designing a kitchen with the sink on the island. I would like to have the range top and hood centered along the island for aesthetic reasons. But I am struggling with where to position the sink on the island. Aesthetically it would look best in the center of the island lined up with the range top.

BUT I am worried that it will be cramped having a person cooking and another person at the sink at the same time.

The distance between the range top and sink would be 48". Is this sufficient distance to not feel crowded? Or should I position the sink offset to the side of the range top so there is not a back-to-back situation?

Thank you!

I have selected Kraken Lappato porcelain floor tile to go with my new Taj Mahal quartzite countertops. The floor tile is 12x24 and closely matches the countertops. We are ordering all new cabinet doors and will be having them stained as well as the cabinet boxes. We are not sure what color stain yet, but are thinking perhaps a medium brown color. The appliances will be stainless steel and platinum glass stainless steel. We are struggling to find a tile backsplash. We saw a nice Taj Mahal look alike tile for the backsplash, but it would probably be too much with the counters and floor. Any suggestions on what might look nice? I am attaching a picture of our kitchen project with the counter installed. Thank you.

I am looking for some advice regarding this kitchen layout. What would be the best layout? Would it make sense to move the island toward the dining room in order to have an uninterrupted work triangle? Everything can be moved except the window. Thank you for any suggestions as I am struggling.

Open to other suggestions as well!
I’d like to basic footprint with appliances staying in same place .
The sink was an interesting choice by previous owner and it is huge with a drip station that has the counter cut to fit it … I am thinking about changing out the black/gray hardware for antique brass to warm up the stainless .

Anyways. I would like to drop the wall with the microwave down to this counter height, which would remove the cabinets and microwave and open it up . Is there a budget or cosmetic reason to take this wall down to current counter height and extending counter over it vs removing walll down to floor?How can I tell if this wall is load bearing? (Red lines are to mark wall wanting to rem0ve)
Would I have to get a whole new counter , or is there a way to extend the current one? Yes I want them the same level!
Please see pictures of current area, AI creation of what I am leaning towards and the floor map of the two rooms . Any advice is welcome.
Also- what to do about an oven vent ? I don’t want to drop anything from the ceiling? (aI put it over to the side lol)

I'm curious, how would you give this kitchen a new lease of life? On a budget!

I couldn’t figure out how to add to my previous post, so apologies for creating another on the same topic.

Remodeling our 1919 kitchen, would like it to look more original to the house (the kitchen is the only room in the entire house that really has been messed with; thankfully woodwork and built ins in the rest of the house have never been painted or changed).

Current dilemma: kitchen is small and has a funky layout. Very little counter space, trying to maximize what we can. had idea to create a sort of “bump out” on the main prep area.

Posted a pic yesterday of a curved bump out, with concerns that it looks too mid-century for a craftsman-inspired kitchen. Many confirmed my concerns. Some suggested trying to square it off.

i have posted 3 pics, which option works best?

1. Original round option

2. Just a traditional counter, and maybe add a pull out larger cutting board?

3. Squared off

important notes: there are no concerns with the support of the countertop, an approved plan for that has been designed

countertop is black soapstone
