Ballard Residence Contemporary Kitchen, Seattle

Oversize floor stencil used here to echo the oversize flower pattern used in the adjacent hall. Drawer faces are cut to mimic the openings on the salvaged pantry doors. Counters and backsplash are recycled chalkboards from Ballard High School fit with a stainless edge.

Why didn't you get a Blue Star hood? - We are buying a Blue Star rangetop and the dimensions of our kitchen leave us no alternative but to use the Blue Star hood. Unfortunately, there are none in the showrooms and the website photos are poor. Curious to know whether you saw it and rejected it for some reason. Thanks.

No reason - the client just really liked this hood :)
Good luck!

I recently (last week!) had my 36" Bluestar RNB delivered. We opted for a Proline Hood off of Amazon instead of a Bluestar; it was about $700 cheaper and so far is working fantastic. I'm curious, why do you HAVE to use a BS? All hood's are generally the same size.

Is it VentaHood nondirectional stainless steel or their brushed stainless steel on hood? What stainless steel is on full lip treatment? Im ready to buy a Ventahood and your reply would be so greatly appreciated! Thank you for your time.

The 36" RNB is around $6,200. Like almost all pro style hoods, Bluestar's are price fixed throughout the country, so pretty sure unless the owner purchased the range second hand or it was a store model (doubtful considering its color), it most definitely wasn't $3,000.

Hello @unstillife, without having the order in front of me it is hard to be 100% positive but going off this photo I would say RAL 2011 which is called Deep Orange

I had bookmarked or pinned the stencils from a photo of another floor like this. I used Photoshop to cut/distort into a flat shape. Then scaled it up / had it printed at Fed Ex/Kinkos on their plotter and then traced onto YUPO (a plastic like paper) and cut out the stencils. I showed the client how to paint the first couple and then she did the rest! We used the same color as the walls for the stencils - Archival by C2 after the first two coats of Swedish finish had been applied to the floors and then another coat was applied after the stencils to give it the needed protection.

What Houzz contributors are saying:

Vanessa Brunner added this to Kitchen of the Week: Creativity Shines in Seattle
The original kitchen had a massive 1950s-style stove, with the burners in a drawer. The clients weren't able to salvage it, but they still wanted to honor the original kitchen in some way. During demolition, they found a bunch of old newspapers in the cabinets, and framed a few select clippings as wall art. The colors in the framed advertisement next to the stove inspired the bright orange of the new $3,000 Blue Star range and glass-painted backsplash. The original fir floors have a beautiful honey color, but there were some very damaged sections. The homeowners liked the floor's patina but wanted to distract from the ruined parts. After the first coat of finish, Zeck painted large stenciled sections onto the floor in the same light gray as the walls, then put on two more coats of finish. Range: Blue Star; hood: Vent–a-hood

If you are not ready to paint over an entire floor, try a stencil. It can bring a fresh and modern look to an ordinary floor.

Kimberly Collins Jermain added this to 8 Ways Colored Floors Can Boost Your Design
6. Play with patterns to visually expand a room. Superimposing a large, organic pattern in white over the clear-coated hardwood makes this kitchen floor appear expansive. Sticking to a simple white and orange color palette keeps the design from overpowering the space and drawing all of the attention.
Becky Harris added this to Having a Design Moment: The Kitchen
Go with an unconventional floor. The large-scale flowers on this floor were applied with stencils.
Bonnie McCarthy added this to How to Clean Your Range and Oven
Joe Shiraz, co-founder of Maids Around Town in Austin, Texas, recommends starting your stove-cleaning project by removing burner trays and putting them in the sink with soapy water. Let them sit for 20 minutes, then rinse and scrub with a sponge to get rid of any remaining food and debris.Shop for sponges on Houzz
