This kitchen is a study in contrast, from the long, sleek island, to the warm and dramatic marble backsplash. At the heart of this kitchen lies the awe-inspiring 14-foot island, complete with custom cabinetry and a white quartz top. Soft matte black wall cabinets adorned with nickel hardware are given character with the addition of diamond mullions and antique glass. This play in contrast against the creamy cabinets sets the stage for an ambiance that is simultaneously striking and timeless.

One of my favorite elements is the soft yet dramatic pattern of the natural marble backsplash. HInt: We used the more delicate marble on the backsplash, and quartz on the counters for durability. We selected rope swivel chairs for the island, adding an organic touch.

As we move into the separate bar area, the homeowners can embrace their inner mixologists, thanks to a dedicated ice machine and fridge.

But wait, there's more! A hidden walk-in pantry reveals itself. Tucked away behind the door, this treasure trove of storage space keeps everything organized and allows the kitchen to maintain its clean and uncluttered appearance.
