Leafy green views are as much a part of this airy kitchen's decor as its artwork, tastefully mixed in with cookbooks and other supplies on the open shelves.

The overall look of this kitchen is perfectly balanced, light and airy up top with bright white walls, marble for the backsplash and a skylight and the room's bottom half anchored with dark countertops and deep blue cabinets.

Navy Kitchen Cabinets and Blue Toaster

Elegant navy cabinets bring an air of sophistication to this kitchen. The pulls are a unifying element, tying in with the brass also seen on the sconces and stove.
