This beautiful l-shaped kitchen incorporates Shaker style cabinetry in a light wood tone while the hardwood floor features a darker wood grain. The coolness of stainless steel is a great complement, not to mention the granite counter on the kitchen island.

A marbled granite back splash also resides above the kitchen sink and the stove, creating a unique and subtle contrast to the tiles. Smoky glass doors let you see shadows of what lines the shelves.

  1. What a gorgeous kitchen, and so nice to see one that isn’t all white! My own kitchen is similar – natural cherry Shaker-style cabinets, which have mellowed to a warm honey color, stainless steel appliances, and dark granite countertops. Would love to see more posts featuring kitchens like this. Love your blog!

  4. I love the warm wood tones but not sure if I like all the different heights of the upper cabinets. I really liked the island especially because it was just a work surface. I don’t like the islands with a stove or kitchen sink, I think that is so messy when you have guests over. This is a nice kitchen but not my favorite. Thanks for the post.
