Is this kitchen look timeless?

8 anni fa

We're choosing an antique white for our cabinets and a dark, flagstone shade for our island. Based on those colors, we thought this flooring would be the best option color wise. Will we be dating ourselves?

The granite we're choosing is lighter with gray undertones. I'm at a loss about backsplash as well. Any ideas?

Oh, and about the “timeless” thing? If you LOVE the kitchen you create, you use every last penny you have to make it that way, and you plan to live in it for a long time, it will ALWAYS be timeless FOR YOU! (The people who sold us this house were obviously happy with pink, green, flowers, stripes and shiny brass for a very long time!)

Having finished this kitchen last summer, we are now camping in our den while renovating two bathrooms. Once we get them done and recarpet that part of the house, we will be broke but satisfied... and I vow to dump my Houzz idea books, avert my eyes from home interior magazines at the checkout line in the grocery store, and NEVER AGAIN turn the channel to HGTV! Then I will never know when my little castle goes out of style. Ignorance will be bliss!

floor is beautiful! Don't go with granite -- it is beginning to be dated. Instead pick a beautiful white quartz and then coordinate with a fun backsplash, maybe a glass, lt green, it you want color, or if not you could use a white subway or some sort of white mosaic.

@Franco2018 grazie. Ho preso appuntamento per venerdì per vedere questo modello Round, di arredo3! Grazie a tutti per i preziosi consigli. Vi tengo aggiornati. La soluzione esteticamente più elegante resta il laccato, su cui nutro però diversi dubbi per la manutenzione.

appurato che non ti piace il legno, non si capisce il discorso sulla sua presunta delicatezza: ti riferisci al piano di lavoro o alle ante? perchè per il piano ci può pure stare (per quanto il legno non sia più delicato di altri materiali usati comunemente e molto meno belli, e ci siano diversi accorgimenti per avere un piano a prova di uso intensivo), ma per le ante proprio no...

Io invece ti direi di andare oltre a Nobili che fa cose piuttosto "di massa" (che non vuol dire che siano cattive eh, solo un po' pensate per piacere a tutti, tipo ikea) e di guardare anche aziende un poco più innovative, le prime che mi vengono in mente sono Mamoli o Gessi o Bongio (questi ultimi li adoro). https://www.bongio.com/categoria-prodotto/cucina/ http://www.gessi.com/it/catalogo/cucina https://www.mamoli.com/serie/paola-the-kitchen/

love the floor. pick a backsplash that draws a color from your counter material.

I think the floor will be too dark. Go lighter w/ a rectified porcelain tile that has a pattern like linen or wood 12 X 36" grout will not show, easy to clean. Use off white subway tiles either end on end or side by side vertical or horizontal. Classic, timeless.

Use a quartz for the counters. Better upkeep.

I like the floor you picked. Agree with acm, pull from the counter for your splash. If your granite has a lot of pattern or movement you might go for a single color tile, there are some really beautiful smoky glass subways that won’t compete with your granite. We have similar cabinet colors in our new kitchen but the perimeter counters were black pearl brushed granite and the island was honed Calacatta Gold marble (which I LOVE). We used a beveled white subway tile for the splash. I’m not adventurous when it comes to color or pattern but the textures are a little different -- and soft, which I enjoy. Good luck with your project, the decisions are never-ending and I have the gray hairs to prove it!

Quartz and subway tile.

food for thought....you can do 2 complimentary stones or finishes of the stone for your countertops....one on the island, one for the rest. a honed or leather finish on granite looks so different from the polished glossy finish!! honestly, creamy white subway tiles are perfect for almost any kitchen, and will never go out of style.

The cabinetry and flooring you have chosen looks timeless --good job! I agree with Lori and Rachel Moriarty Interiors regarding the countertop. Don't do granite but instead go with a quartz. I would also recommend doing a white/soft-white subway tile for backsplash. LOVE the photo shown above from lindacdo, with the tile all the way up the wall *emoji heart eyes*. I guess I'm not giving much "advice" but rather affirming the great options given above. Good luck! Would love to see progress photos and after photos ;)

I agree with going with quartz, but would suggest waiting until your kitchen is well on its way so you can bring home tiles and hold them up to see sizes, shapes and colors. A classic is marble and with its variations and it will also pick up/compliment your darker cabinetry. Your selections are lovely and enjoy your new kitchen.

You'll be happy with your selections, don't worry about dating. What dates a kitchen is keeping accessories forever, or worse, having a theme. The bones, if well chosen in the beginning, will always look good.
