Our remodel is still moving along steadily and ahead of schedule. This week and next week are major working days for plumbers, electricians, painters, and finish carpentry. Yesterday and today the tile guy was working in the kitchen. As I have written before, one side of the kitchen is the true cooking area. When complete it will have three full ovens, two gas and one electric; a microwave oven; a refrigerator; large sink with accessories, the sink comes with a cutting board, a sieve basket, a container, and a rack and all of those accoutrements sit on the inside of the sink as needed. That's the side of the kitchen that is getting the tile backsplash with the quilting motifs.
The diamond in a square tile is centered over where the 48 inch Wolf range will stand. The four square blocks go around the room although the colors are hard to discern in the corner photo. The other side of the room has the blue cabinets so the blue mimics that and Wolf ranges come with red handles on the front so the wine color tiles sort of mimic that although they are darker red. Our small eating area will have a square top pedestal table in worn wood finish with four leather chairs around it, two blue and two the same green as the field tiles. One wall has the blue cabinets and the opposite wall where there is no window will have an enormous English fiddle front dresser in worn wood and worn black paint.
My husband and I won't be tripping over each other here and in addition to all of these cabinets, there is a full walk in pantry that's about 10 by 10 with shelves on three of the four walls so lots of space for canned goods, dry goods, potatoes and onions, etc. I have not decided yet if we will have a wine chiller in there since I don't drink a great deal of wine but there is a plug outlet so I can set up some of my electronic kitchen devices in there if I need to.
That's going to be one heck of a sink! Can't wait to see how all these colors work with each other.
