Here is a beautiful home on the side of a hill in Graham, TX. The customer kept her original cabinetry but added Caesarstone Piatra Grey Quartz Countertops and Carrara Marble 2X4 Subway tile. What a transformation from her original formica countertop and 4" backsplash. Thank you to our customer Debra Haley for the wonderful photos!

We weren't kidding when we said the refrigerator wouldn't fit. It happens when new appliances are shoe-horned into old layouts. The fridge used to be located on the left against the back wall next to the oven. The door opened into the wall, so to speak. Stupid! In this case, there were more problems to solve, but that started the ball rolling. Once you decide the priorities of problems to solve, the design can then begin to take shape. This homeowner wanted more space to serve her guests the latest culinary delights. The atmosphere was important, however, a dark, cramped kitchen just didn't work. Besides, this family had a lot to look forward and outward to, being situated on a body of water with a great view.

Designed by Nancy Knickerbocker of Reico Kitchen & Bath in Southern Pines, NC, this transitional blue and white finish kitchen design features Merillat Classic cabinets in the Marlin door style in 2 finishes. The perimeter cabinets feature the Nightfall finish, complemented by kitchen island cabinets in the Cotton finish. The kitchen also includes Silestone Pietra quartz countertops, Whirlpool appliances, Kohler faucet and Kichler light fixtures. The tile backsplash features Happy Floors 3" Hexagon Alaska Glossy tile with Laticrete Raven grout. Said Nancy, “The homeowners wanted something unique. The dark blue cabinetry and the hexagon backsplash are fun! The space is not large so removing a traditional table and adding an island opened the space, provided additional prep area and still allows for some seating. Storage improved by adding a small pantry with roll out shelves and incorporating a lazy susan. We met a couple of times in our showroom to select door style and finishes, but finalized the project through e-mail and phone calls.” “Very nice job and met our expectations. Nancy was great help selecting products,” said the client. Photos courtesy of ShowSpaces Photography.
