I can answer this one since I live in that kitchen. ;-) The measurement from cabinet backsplash to backsplash is 17' and from range backsplash to curved edge of island is about 11'. If you include the breakfast area and open entertaining area between kitchen and breakfast room, the total room space is 17' x 26'. The old kitchen had red stained maple cabinets, black granite countertops and a contemporary boomerang shaped island with a matching rope-lit dropped ceiling (which we called 'the spaceship'). It was definitely a kitchen stuck in the '90s and the layout was very awkward. Wamhoff's design team created a much more workable space which we love. Plenty of space for two or more chefs in the kitchen as well. Not pictured are all the wonderful interior soft close organizing shelves in clear finished maple and neat features like trash pullouts, cookie sheet cabs and the pretty cabinet face on the dishwasher which allows the island to look like a piece of furniture. More pictures of the space can be seen at the cabinetmaker's page, Jonathon Dahl Woodworks.

Thank you so much for your very full explanation. What is so inspiring as how functionality is fitted into a relatively small space and how breathtakingly beautiful it is!

Why we loved this WZ tile: Before remodeling the kitchen, we remodeled the curved staircase in the kitchen/family area. We had a custom iron railing made using a quatrefoil design I'd sketched up for the fabricator. A year later, we found this WZ Vendome tile and the design was so close to the iron quatrefoil, it looked traced. Later we worked a bit of the same detail into the new iron front doors. A great theme.

What color is on the cabinets?

The painted cabinet color is Benjamin Moore Shaker Beige. The island and wine niche are stained black walnut. A detailed description of the painting process (and other cabinet staining/construction details) can be seen at the cabinetmaker's houzz page. http://www.houzz.com/projects/427327/cypress-kitchen-1

I just looked at the BM Shaker Beige swatch and it looks so much darker. Did you do lighten up the mixture by 50%?

The lacquer paint was made by a specialty paint company and mixed to match the BM Shaker Beige flat walls. I think the visual difference may be because of paint types and how light affects them . The cabinets are furniture-quality lacquer which has a low sheen that reflects light and the walls are flat latex which isn't reflective. If you look at the cabinet color in comparison to the canisters of white sugar and flour, you can get a feel for the true color of the cabs. Also, it may help to look at the image of the nearby stairway which is in a comment above. It's a close up view of Shaker Beige in different types of paint. The stair risers are painted Shaker Beige enamel and the walls are Shaker Beige flat latex. The light makes them look slightly different.

thank you for your response. Your kitchen is stunning! one more question...what is the price point for the backsplash? I love it and my new kitchen is about the same size. Curious to know those WZ tiles are in my budget :)

Hi Michelle, what is your zip code? We encourage you to contact a showroom or dealer near you to find out this information. You can look up the information to one here: http://walkerzanger.com/showroom-dealer/

Hi Michelle - I don't recall the exact cost for the backsplash, but it wasn't cost prohibitive. In fact, the cost of the backsplash was one of the least expensive budget items in the kitchen. Because a backsplash makes such strong impression in a kitchen design, I really recommend getting it right. Our local WZ showroom staff was very helpful and the showroom itself very inspirational. I would definitely visit.

Thank you!! I completely agree with you Kathleen about the backsplash. My backsplash is about the same size is yours so I'm not too worried about the budget. Our budget for the backsplash in the kitchen is pretty generous. there will be another kitchen in Texas that looks like you so I hope you don't mind :)
