The existing tile floor with a slate boarder was my inspiration. (This floor was a project I completed over 10 years ago!)
Tile floor detail.
The fireplace is what really started it all. Years ago the client wanted to update their kitchen floor. At that time I integrated the slate boarder with the neutral tile to create a clean and simple look. When they were ready to upgrade their countertops and backsplash, they called me back. Staying consistent with the slate accent maintains the Northwest warm pallet that's evident throughout the home.

KITCHEN UPGRADE

The client's home is very Northwest with a huge slate fireplace, wood floors throughout and large spans of windows to take in the mountain and water views. So this West Seattle Kitchen just needed a little upgrade as the clients prepare the home for sale in the next few years. The tiled kitchen floors were still in great condition. And the client liked the dark slate banding. I used these tones as a my inspiration springboard. New counters, backsplash with some details, the removal of the high walled area, and simple stainless steal door handles will all help create a more open and modern space that they can enjoy now and potential new owners will appreciate too. More pictures to come as the project progresses.
