A cork floor displays a large light blue island with a polished gray countertop in this bright, contemporary kitchen. Shades of blue and yellow subway tile on the backsplash bring pops of extra color between the white upper cabinets and blue lower cabinets. Stainless steel appliances and chairs give a modern touch.

A backsplash of blue and pale yellow subway tile complements the dark gray countertops while bringing in pops of color. A mix of white and blue cabinets add contrast to the space, while a cork floor provides a unique textural element in this transitional kitchen.

This contemporary kitchen features blue cabinetry complimented with a blue and yellow tile backsplash. A dark countertop breaks up the blue color and contrasts well with the upper white cabinets. A pendant light hangs above the deep sink to pair artificial light with the natural light from the window.

A large, blue kitchen island not only offers room for prep and cooking but also features seating, built-in cookbook storage, drawers and a wine refrigerator. A metal chair has a modern look against the contemporary cork flooring and blue tile backsplash.
