Classical Twist: A Modern Townhouse with Traditional Reference

http://maccaulturner.com

A bachelor with an ambitious project, and plans to start a family, called on me to convert a rundown apartment building into his dream home. This stunning city dwelling is the result of my love for New York townhomes, with European influences and modern flair.

ccwatters Photos can be deceiving, but in this "photo" and on my monitor, it looks like Special Walnut (not as deep as Walnut)

What Houzz contributors are saying:

added by Vanessa Brunner to Houzz Tour: New Style with Old-World Warmth

Double appliances — twin ranges, ovens and refrigerators — were installed in this main kitchen. There is another kitchen in the guest house, and an outdoor kitchen on the rooftop, but this kitchen serves as the cooking space for the primary residence. Granite countertops, all-white cabinetry, and marble backsplash tile combine to create a luxurious look with texture and depth. Countertops: Costa Esmerelda graniteCabinetry: Custom, painted in Acadia White by Benjamin MoorePendants: Circa LightingBacksplash: Crema Marfil with Fossil Green accents from Waterworks

I like the grey in this, would go nicely with the slate, gives you the dark countertop you were looking for without making it too dark. I also think it would flow nicely with the beach and craftsman look.
