Was absolutely delighted a few weeks ago to meet Kevin Walsh of Bear Hill Interiors and his sister when they stopped by the Nbaynadamas booth at the NY International Gift Fair. I have featured Bear Hill's work time and time again. Love their style so I was truly thrilled to meet Kevin ...who was just as nice as can be!
After seeing Kevin, I got to browsing around the Bear Hill website and came upon this kitchen. A rich modern open kitchen with dark wood cabinetry with the grain of the wood peeking through, luxurious brown wood floors, marble island counters, a mosaic tile backsplash and some hints of lavender here and there. Over the last week or so, I keep coming back to this kitchen. It is not my normal white kitchen but I was really liking the simplicity and elegance of it. That's kitchen #1 in today's THIS OR THAT.
Then there is kitchen #2. All white. Totally different in feel with checkered stone floors, white cabinetry, bead board ceilings and an arched window above the sink. Just the opposite tone...more classic and traditional.
Tough one in today's THIS OR THAT...clean modern with dark wood grain cabinetry vs. white traditional with a stone floor? Hmmm...I'm having a tough time here with this one. Would it be cheating to say that I would take a little from both kitchens...the clean lines and wood floors from #1 and the color (or lack there of) from kitchen #2? I know...I'm supposed to pick...but I can't help it!
Which is your favorite kitchen if you had to chose? Which might work in your own home? #1 or #2? No wishy washy answers like mine please!
Happy Monday!
