Ornate kitchen photo in Denver

The area on the left side of this photograph was originally a pantry room...now redesigned as a preparation storage area for appliances. The Brazilian Dream granite slab is on the island and two sides either side of the stove wall.

These floating shelves are very unique - they float over the window that is over the sink. This is a really cool idea if you are looking to put in shelves near a window. Photos by Chris Veith

When time is short, you can still do some quick decor around the house that really creates the mood! Use what you have around the house already and just add a pumpkin and something fun that represents Halloween. I had these metallic candle holders here in my home from Yankee Candle and they added to this easy grouping of a pumpkin and adorable witches potion bottle from Pier One. And, if you like the banquette seating behind my table, that's from Ballard Designs. -Kala Ambrose Intuitive Interior Decor

Corner sinks are a great idea when there are no windows to design with in the kitchen space. Under cabinet lighting lights up this area. Chris Veith
