Timeless Black & White Kitchen

A kitchen remodel in Minnetonka Beach uses a palette that is timelessly elegant and easy to decorate. The beauty of using a black-and-white palette is the flexibility of playing with other colors or shapes. And this project is a great example of how two contrasting colors communicate more powerfully together than they do on their own. The other elements such as the warm chocolate beams and light color of white oak flooring pairs nicely with the cool greys.
A custom black island with a second sink is great for cooking as a family. Above the island hang a touch of drama. Two stunning vintage pendant lights by Hudson Valley give the room great light.

Here's a trend that focuses on family. The lowered kitchen table up against the island allows for a casual place to eat as a family. Lovely comfortable rope chairs on all sides for better conversation.

Around the corner from the kitchen is the bar room. Incorporating a room for a bar on the main floor is becoming a popular option. If you entertain frequently, it is a convenient place for guests to gather and still feel connected to what may be happening in the kitchen/living area. Using the bar as a serving/buffet area is also a great use of space!
