Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. Thanks

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. Congrats on the house and bearing with all that one goes through with a remodel. Since you've already started the remodel of kitchen with the wide planks I think you need to continue with that same material on the main floor. Upstairs you might be able to pull off using a different stain...as for the countertop surfaces I think you can compartmentalize those rooms and add the surfaces that fit the look you are going for while creating a cohesive look.

Hull Forest Products Some of our clients choose stair treads in the same wood used on their floor to make a nice flow between levels in their home. Here's one example (showing natural birch stair treads and birch wide plank flooring): http://www.hullforest.com/birch-flooring-natural-grade-p-39.html?image_id=262

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. We do not have the resource for the fireplace.

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. The home office is on the other side of the fireplace. Can't imagine a passage way or viewpoint from a main living area to a bedroom.

arianneken Hah, good answer, thanks!

lsonders It's a Lee Jofa rug. NYC showroom has it on display.

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. This was a custom color that was mixed on site by the floor installer.

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. Thanks, the lumber package was provided by http://www.gowestpac.com/

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. I believe we put it at 42" on the 2nd floor

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. These were from Pottery Barn.

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. I'm sorry we don't have easy access to these plans, I would estimate the wall to be 8' - 10' wide.

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. Love that rug, we sourced it from www.kushrugs.com

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. I'm sorry I don't know where the clients purchased the fan...maybe restoration hardware?

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. We used Benjamin Moore - CC-20 Decorator's White (eggshell finish)

gol4er Thank you

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. Once you go to the stone yards and start looking at the actual stones you'll mimed be drawn to the stone that is more appealing to you. Love Bianco Romano White.

I would probably be more likely to use the nickel finish on the lighting or a pewter finish than the black or oiled bronze. Don't be afraid to mix up your metal finishes.

foreverhouse You are one step ahead of me! I didn't mention I already decided on the white subway tile before you suggested it! In one of my other questions I asked about mixing metal finishes because the house I bought has a very high end round lantern with a embossed design in shiny brass in the entry. I already have some brass in my furniture that I don't think I should replace but over the years I've been toning down others that I can with bronze, and adding pewter and silver items, etc. I didn't know if I could leave the brass chandelier in the foyer or it would shout dated..It seems people are mixing the metals..Thanks again..

foreverhouse My new house has brazilian cherry floors in the entry, dining, living room and entry hall which is directly outside the entrance to the kitchen. My first choice would be a dark wood floor to ground it but I can't match the brazilian cherry. This particular brazilian cherry floor has light and dark boards, three inches wide..random length..so I can't match it even if I sanded everything together after installing the new kitchen floor. I'm going with a gray slate color 18x18 gray porcelain tile..white inset custom cabinets..I would LOVE to use marble but I know my family and that's not possible..so..I'm looking for a white granite that has gray and black in it. I'm leaning towards a black center island with pewter knobs..same white granite with gray in it..I would love a lantern for above the island but not sure yet..I want to paint it the Woodlawn Blue or Atmosphere Blue by RH.

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. I think with the white cabinets and the lighter countertops on the perimeter of the kitchen that you're wanting, maybe it's best you don't have more of the brazilian cherry...I like the idea of the slate tiles.

I love the Atmosphere Blue...not loving the green of the Woodlawn Blue with your colors.

For the countertops have you looked at Madam White Granite...it might be the granite you've been looking for..check it out.

It's sounding like you've got a great plan and maybe you'll do a simple subway tile backsplash.

Rebekah Zaveloff Ebony stain on walnut or oak

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. Yay Rebekah got one right! These are oak floors stained in place! Ebonized (To stain black like ebony).

Garrison Hullinger Interior Design Inc. We just used the smaller size throughout the home.

charlottegirl I've seen a similar fixture at Lantern & Scroll, and added bonus made in the USA! They are great to work with: www.lanternandscroll.com Cheers!
