Craftsman-style trim and custom millwork lends a well-established look in the kitchen of a new-construction home. Designer Jamie House selected a soft mint color for the cabinetry to add depth to this bright, light space and chose over-scale pendant lights to balance the scale of the large island.

Tiles of marble mimic the look of a subway tile backsplash and match the marble countertops in this chic kitchen. Marble tile is also a far more affordable option than a single slab of marble. A beautiful apron-front sink is the perfect finishing feature.

A cooktop with six burners adds a professional's chef touch in this elegant kitchen. Linen-colored walls, mint-green cabinetry and crisp white marble offer a fresh twist on a light, breezy kitchen color palette.

An elegant marble counter tops mint green cabinetry to create a welcoming space to gather in this Craftsman-style kitchen. "We wanted it to be a little something special," designer Jamie House says. "It’s a walkway, so there wasn’t enough room to extend the counter far enough to accommodate seating, but it’s a good space to stop and talk."
