subeeskitchen brushed nickel

subeeskitchen The base bench cabinets are about 20" deep, but the top as about a 3/4" overhang

Rhonda Can you please tell me what your flooring is, love it.

kerry_redican Is the hood Model PLJW109.36? If not, could you please share the model?

subeeskitchen Not sure - the invoices are filed away

subeeskitchen 15"

subeeskitchen Both faucets are Dornbracht Tara.

subeeskitchen Thanks. The cabinets are just pure white. A close match is Benjamin Moore Super White.

subeeskitchen I ordered it online. It's a Danver floating shelf.

subeeskitchen It's long-plank fir (which is right for the period of the house but extremely soft -- wouldn't be my first choice if we weren't trying to match the rest of the house.) Finish is Minwax Puritan Pine stain and an oil-based urethane topcoat.

Surecor Mosaic Open kitchen is always a good choice to make the room more spacious. Love it~

subeeskitchen It's a Benjamin Moore color - http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/pm1

subeeskitchen Hi - Please refer back to the previously posted questions - I know there are a lot of them but all of your questions have been addressed. The cushions are quite firm - they're 3" foam wrapped in batting, and then the Sunbrella fabric holds up very well. If anything I wish they would soften a bit because they make the seat height a tiny bit too high. Definitely like having the custom cushions, though.

subeeskitchen 33" from base of pendants to countertop. We use 200-watt clear bulbs.

lorieglantz That's great so it must be decent depth to those cabinets. You did such an amazing job on your kitchen. I'm going to model mine after yours I love it that much!!!

subeeskitchen Thanks! Yes - there is no "filler" space in the island - just lots of storage on all 4 sides. The short ends house a printer on one side and mixer lift on the other. (Photos on my blog in the post "Inside the Kitchen".

subeeskitchen The chairs were from Restoration Hardware (10+ years ago). We had the slipcovers made by a local seamstress. Ordered the Sunbrella fabric from outdoorfabrics.com. Great fabric if you have kids - everything washes right out.

subeeskitchen From a local lighting showroom that's now out of business. It is a Preciosa brand, and the model has been discontinued (though the company may have newer, similar models).

subeeskitchen Wish the desk area could've been a little wider, so that at least one drawer could be wide enough for file folders. Also wish there was an overhang on the short ends of the marble, so that a bar stool could be brought around (better for conversation that 4 in a line).

subeeskitchen So nice! Thanks

subeeskitchen Benjamin Moore Satin Impervo "White" is what we used on trim. Cabinetmaker had his own finish in "white". Also matches Benj. Moore "Super White".

subeeskitchen Thx -- it's from our old (and sadly, almost dead) native dogwood tree. I bring in a few cuttings every spring.

subeeskitchen Ours are incandescent.

funya Thank you for sharing, Sue! I have been wanting to ask about the recessed lights, too, but hesitant to bother you with another question after seeing tons of them. So glad sherkelsey asked, and of course thankful to see your advice to it! I was about to get "6 LED (looks too big and ugly), but so happy to see this site before I purchase. Everything you did on your kitchen looks so perfect and just beautiful. Thanks for your generosity to share precious and valuable advices! While there are hundreds of choices/products on almost anything in the kitchen, getting a hint of how it looks together from such a lovely kitchen truly, truly helps. I and my 5yr daugher became fan of your blog, too! Wishing you the best.

subeeskitchen Benjamin Moore Edgecomb Gray

subeeskitchen The marble slab is 9'x5' (12" overhang)

subeeskitchen The range is a BlueStar: 48", all-gas, 8 burners, 2 ovens.

subeeskitchen These cabinets are custom-built by a cabinet maker and are " inset".

subeeskitchen This is closest picture as of now -- planning to post more soon on subeeskitchen.com (my food blog). There are electrical strips on each short end of the island (if you zoom this picture you might be able to see them.) There are also outlets inside each short-end cabinet -- one for the stand mixer (with lift) and one for the wireless printer)

popl9425 The breakfast area with the table

subeeskitchen yes

subeeskitchen 2.5 cm!

subeeskitchen The glass/crystal chandelier is a Preciosa brand (discontinued model), from a local lighting showroom.

subeeskitchen The floor is fir (from Russia, because we spec'd long boards to match the rest of the house). It's stained in Puritan Pine ( I think). Not sure I would recommend fir, though, unless you had an open floor plan like we do and were trying to match old wood. (It's VERY soft.)

subeeskitchen The chandelier is by Preciosa.

subeeskitchen The overhang is 12". The kids have learned not to kick. Cabinets clean easily with Mr. Clean magic erasers.

subeeskitchen The island is calcutta gold marble, and the perimeter counters are pietra cardosa. (Both honed.)

schepke they are beautiful...are they comfortable?

subeeskitchen They're not UNcomfortable, but not what I'd call super comfortable either. They're a little cold, too. But, they're what we were looking for aesthetic-wise, and I also wanted something that didn't swivel or have backs because I was worried about kids banging up the marble.

subeeskitchen The cabinets and trim are pure white - no tint. (Trim color is the same throughout the house.) The wood floors and abundant natural light keep the room from feeling cold.

subeeskitchen We specified long boards (again to match the old floors); these came from Russia (!). 2 1/4" wide. They are stained with MinWax Puritan Pine. Be warned that fir is very very soft -- it will have a "patina" in no time. You have to be prepared for this.

subeeskitchen The knobs are very simple -- also RH, but I think they were "Aubrey". Finish for all is brushed.

subeeskitchen The design was a truly collaborative effort among architect, interior designer and homeowner (me).

subeeskitchen These are Loewen windows.

subeeskitchen The farm-style table is vintage.

PoshHaus Hard to tell but looks like a Dornbracht faucet.

subeeskitchen Both sinks have Dornbracht faucets. ("Tara")

adinkins What size subway tile is used for backsplash?

Subway Tile Outlet The back splash looks like 3x6 white subway tile. Very pretty space!

subeeskitchen I had these custom made by a local sewer. Ordered the Sunbrella fabric (stain-resistant) from outdoorfabrics.com.

subeeskitchen Cabinets were custom-made. Island is approx. 5'x9'.

subeeskitchen Thanks -- the subway tiles are just plain ol' white cheapies! Not from Home Depot but almost the same. (We compared both and thought the ones from the tile store felt a little more substantial, but they were very close.) It's the grey grout that creates the illusion.

Subway Tile Outlet These are white glass subway tiles in the back splash.

You can find them in different colors and sizes as well on our site. We also offer samples so you can get a good feel for the color of the tile before you put it on your back splash.

kmorris301 Where are the lights from?

subeeskitchen The pendants are from Hudson Valley.

Lauren Huff Thanks! I love everything about your kitchen!

subeeskitchen Thanks! Check out my blog to see what I cook in it: www.subeeskitchen.com

janie62 It looks like red oak

subeeskitchen It is fir (to match the rest of the 100+year-old home).

subeeskitchen Benjamin Moore "Edgecomb Gray".

ekzita mi piace.......

subeeskitchen Pietra cardosa

subeeskitchen Thanks -- the flooring is long-plank fir (to match the rest of the 100-yr-old house). Very soft, though.

Kathleen LoGiodice Fong | Color and Design I'm not an expert, but this looks like the subway tile that is hand poured at Waterworks.

subeeskitchen Thank you -- it's actually a very simple, generic and inexpensive subway tile. The grayish grout is "Silverado" -- it gives it dimension.

claudiamacf stools!

cletus Do you ever find the island too deep? Reaching to the kids on the stools? Debating a 5' or 4' island.

Thanks!

kelymcd1519 I am looking at the same range but with 4 burners, grill and griddle. It has been recommended that we buy a hood that is wider than the range(52 or 54"). I noticed your hood is 48", same as your range. Does it provide sufficient ventilation? I'd really like to stay with a 48" hood for symmetry and so I don't lose more of my upper cabinets. Thx!,

subeeskitchen I heard that too, but I think it a) looks funny to have the hood wider than the range/cooktop, and b) isn't necessary if you have a decent hood/blower. Maybe with a grill you'd get more smoke, but I do plenty of searing and frying and my blower has been fine (even with the "obstruction" of a shelf above).

chadgardner75 Can you tell me what surface you used on the countertops to complement the calcutta gold?

subeeskitchen The perimeter countertops are pietra di cardosa -- which is kind of like a combination of slate and soapstone.
