Timeless and Trendy

Textures and color come

together to create a relaxed, inviting vibe in

this Virginia kitchen.

FINISHING TOUCHES

Seasoned designers, April and Gizem were able to guide the homeowners toward choices that best fit their goals for the space. Instead of a traditiona­l white or stain that might clash with the wood flooring, they chose soft sage paired with a taupe beige for the simple Shaker-style cabinets. “The neighborho­od has lots of trees, so we took inspiratio­n from that,” April says. They chose a quartz countertop that brings the color palette together and adds to the earthy feel. For lighting, Edison bulbs paired with birdcage enclosures are a perfect addition that add an updated and trend-forward feel.

Bringing together classic elements with a touch of trendy, this kitchen now provides a more open, calming and functional space for entertaini­ng friends and family.
