Crisp Architects photo is featured in an ideabook: Put Your Kitchen in a Good Light With a Window Backsplash


tammytimamy I like the idea and the look, but in my opinion, having a see-through glass splash back behind the cooker hob is a bit mad - lovely splatters of tomato based sauces and grease come to mind. Glass is so much harder to clean if you expect to look through it as well (which is why windows are a complete pain to clean). I have a window above the sink area, and it gets splashed all the time and looks so dirty, no matter how much I clean it. And that's just with water splashes!

Crisp Architects Mineral Oil is a great product to use. Another suggestion is pure raw almond oil, walnut oil. or raw tung oil. Raw tung oil is obtained by pressing the seeds from the nut of a tung tree. When applied in many fine coats over wood, tung oil slowly cures to a satin "wetted wood" look with slight golden tint. It resists liquid water better than any other pure oil finish. Mineral oil, however is cheap, easy to find, and easy to apply. I think any of these choices will work fine, you should choose what will work for you.

Crisp Architects There are many pros for having a gravel driveway. They are popular in rural areas because they require little maintenance, maintain the traditional look of the home, and can last a long time since water passes right through it as opposed to concrete or asphalt which will sink and crack.

Kristina Heredia Thank you so much for this informative post! I am a wallpaper lover, lol! I find it refreshing and dramatic especially used in small areas like a powder room as mentioned above, or an accent wall. I have a black and white damask pattern in my dinning room and love the drama it adds. You can also use subtle patterns with a beautiful sheen for glam, especially in how light may hit it. I love Farrow and Ball wallpaper, or Candice Olsen's shimmering details line. And wallpaper isn't what it used to be as mentioned by many above, it is much easier to remove.

Pamela Rosenberg It is gorgeous in someone else's home. I am just old enough to have wallpapered our entire home in the mid and late 90's. It is hard to showcase art on a patterned wall, I tired of the patterns, and I eventually had to strip it off or pay someone to strip it for me. $$$ As tempting as these photos are I think I will pass this time around.

Crisp Architects I think either one would look great. A white door with a black screen door will probably look nice with the break up of color, however, black entry doors can bring a bold element and look very aesthetically pleasing as well. I have seen both the white door with black screen and the black painted doors on historic traditional homes. It really will depend on your taste. If you are looking to tie in the shutters, a black door would match nicely.

Crisp Architects Thanks for your interest, the flooring is mahogany. As far as maintenance goes, I would recommend you sweep dirt and debris from your mahogany flooring on a regular basis. Rinse it with a garden hose when sweeping is not enough. It is also wise to clean it at least once a year with a deck cleaner according to the manufacturer's instructions. A sealant or water repellent would also be good to use on it once a year.

Crisp Architects The exterior paint color used on the stucco was actually a custom color mixed on site. However, Benjamin Moore Greenbrier Beige HC-79 looks like it could be a similar match. You should order samples and see what works for you. The stone was from a company called O & G Supply out of Connecticut. Here is the link if you would like to request information. Hope this helps and thanks for your interest!
