Surface alterations provided a simple update to this kitchen. We installed new Cambria Victoria countertops, plumbing fixtures, appliances, and a tile floor where old indoor/outdoor carpeting used to be. A ceramic 4×4 tile backsplash between the owners re-varnished upper and lower natural oak cabinets adds a charming touch. New cabinet hardware with a small leaf motif, subtle leaf patterns in the tile and the leaves on the new lighting fixtures graciously carry the owners’ love of nature through the finished spaces.
