## Community Q&A

**Q: Overhang** *(in Photo Questions)*

What is the counter overhang here? TIA!

A: Metal L-brackets

**Q: Love the back splash mosaic. Where is it from?** *(in Photo Questions)*

Where are the materials from that were used in the back splash mosaic? Thanks

A: The interior designer picked those tiles - Christine Brun + Associates.  She is on Houzz too. Send her a message. Mention that it was the backsplash for the Wasson project.

**Q: Is there glass on the main window doors? or just the wrought iron?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Just the wrought iron, so the main panels open for a nice breeze without opening the whole door.

**Q: What's the tile used in this house?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: Floors are travertine. The interior designer and I did not recommend this to the client because of staining and wear problems in a high traffic area like a kitchen. But the client went with it.

**Q: Kcv124** *(in Photo Questions)*

Color of walls?

A: Sherman Williams  - Cotton White

**Q: Love the exterior color! What is it?** *(in Photo Questions)*

A: The color is custom. We selected a color in the stone work. The exterior stucco finish is called "Santa Barbara'" which gives a suede like texture to the plaster and I think softens the color too.
