In the open concept design, the hardwood floors and white and wood design scheme help visually connect the kitchen and dining room. On the wall near the dining table, a school of fish are a whimsical nod to the home's beach location.

In the kitchen, cinnamon-colored wood frames out the cabinets and is a strong contrast against the otherwise white decor.

Touches such as the golden pendant and the wood floors and cabinets warm up the crisp white palette in the kitchen. Honey colors such as the browns and metallics here are a great way to add depth and richness to what can be a sterile look.

A wood paneled refrigerator matches the surprise paneling on the back of the island. It's a fun way to add life and unique personality to this stylish kitchen.
