Wow so unexpected that you would pair "chocolate" subway tile with a black and white kitchen.. AND
with what appears to be navy counter stools and carpet under the dining table....It's really so stylish and beautiful, thanks again for your answers.October 27, 2011- PRO

Just confirming it's Benjamin Moore 980 "Woodcliff Lake"?
Just curious if you what finish you used? Matte, Egg Shell, Satin, of Semi-Gloss? Looks like Matte or Egg Shell. Your design is an inspiration!October 4, 2011last modified: October 4, 2011

Thank you for the nice words... very much appreciated.
Your "bench" is 4 meters? Are you saying that your "island" is 4 meters long? The island in the photograph is 4' x 12' Here is the link for the lights in the photo

If your island is a large as I think it is then I would use the same light fixtures. If you want a smaller alternative you could use the Berlin Pendant from Roost...

Many, many thanks to you Jason for such a detailed response. Greatly appreciated. Yes my island is 4 metres (I have 3 young boys who love their food & their space!!) so yes I agree that the larger cone will be perfect and I can source similar styles here in Australia. So thrilled I discovered your designs. Kind regards, Meg..May 11, 2013

Hi, "No, not really." The island needs the contrast of the lighter floor. If you change the color of the island to white you'll be ok. As for the rest of the colors, you may want to lighten the paint color a bit. If you need design help with your home you can call or email us and set up a design consultation. We'd be happy to work with you. Good luck with your project.

"I try to twist things as much as I can," Urrutia says. Hence, his choice to bring depth to ever-popular white cabinetry by using black cabinetry as the base of the island. The glass pendants were from Ballard Designs.
What Houzzers are commenting on:
Drawers at end, perhaps one side dog water station/feeding station
The clear pendants above island and then the dome chandelier pendants above dining room table.
