High contrast black and white kitchens are a hot trend right now but
they can be a little cold. In this kitchen, we’ve paired black cabinetry
with white cabinetry and opted for a
statement making custom range hood
and wood floors to add warmth to the
space. Gold hardware adds additional
warmth and plays off the glamour
brought in by the shimmering mosaic
tile. - Gillian & Co, www.gillianco.com
This kitchen was designed as the hub
of the home where a busy family of
five could congregate with friends and
family members around the large, backlit
onyx island. This contemporary kitchen
represents a mix of modern materials
including an oak island, white cabinets,
an island with waterfall sides, natural stone countertops and stainless
steel feature cabinets. - Teresa Cain, www.interiorsolutionsdesigngroup.com; Photo by

We love the look of light
countertops paired with
contrasting dark or woodgrain
cabinets. This custom kitchen
features Polar Ice fine grain
recycled glass countertops
with a thinner edge profile.
The same material is used
as a slab backsplash which
adds modern appeal to the
space. This nonporous, stain
and scratch-resistant and
low-maintenance countertop
is a great choice for any
kitchen. - Granite Transformations, www.
