Merging the homeowner's mid-western rustic style roots with the indoor/outdoor living accessible in Southern California, we addressed their preference for modern appliances and craftsman style. Showcased through a crisp praline finish, the rich caramel tones of this casual San Marcos kitchen bring mid-west warmth and rustic craftsmanship to mind. The gold veined granite countertops continue the honey highlights throughout, with raised panel shaker cabinets and brushed brass pulls, completing the craftsman theme.
