Though functional, the kitchen didn't reflect the homeowners' style. They wanted to bring it up to date and incorporate classic materials.

Brilliant white floor-to-ceiling cabinetry not only brightens up the space, but it also adds necessary storage. Glass doors at the top of the cabinetry create interest and provide a spot for displaying favorite dishware.

Fairley makes a stylish statement by taking the creamy subway tile backsplash all the way up to the ceiling.

The creamy countertops are the same throughout the kitchen, but the island features an earthy brown cabinetry, which helps to ground the mostly white space. Two bar stools tuck neatly under the island for extra seating.
