Sophisticated Kitchen Designs

Silk, marble and crystal adorn this petite kitchen, which has been incorporated into an 1800s federal-style home. Frosty white raised-panel cabinetry with crystal knobs sits above and below a Turkish-marble subway-tile backsplash. Dark-stained Jacobean flooring and taupe silk wall covering draw out the colored veins and shading in the marble. Limited space requires maximum efficiency in the usability of this hard-working stylish space, and an adjoining laundry room offers additional storage.
