Your choice is lovely, but it will rely on grays and beiges which is not necessarily “classic”. Surely, it is more contemporary (of the time).

Classic? Soap stone and marble with white walls. My great grandmother (1872) had soapstone for sink (with a hand pump); counters were wood; island was marble…perfect for rolling out pastry, but the island was in a huge pantry and not in the kitchen because kitchen space was filled with the cast iron wood fired stove.

Yum…could she make pies and stews.

I worry that all of us rush into following the trends. There is so much offered to us when decorating. I am one who is influenced, as well.

I just read a wonderful decor blog, Laurel Homes, reintroducing the “pantry”.
