In good taste
This Spanish Pointe kitchen uses warm stone and tile to achieve an elegant yet rustic Mediterranean style.
Mediterranean-inspired concepts are back in terms of fashion and design. Earthy shades and hues work particularly well in the kitchen, as shown by this stunning project completed by Distinctive Granite and Marble. Andrea McGilton shares a few of the luxury materials her team used to give this Spanish Pointe Drive kitchen some Old World flair.
Crema Bordeaux granite slabs were used for the countertop and bar tops. The rich, warm-colored granite resembles the planet Jupiter with its swirling pink and cream patterns, infused with shades of red earth tones, beiges, blues and grays.
The countertops feature an ogee edge — a concave arch that flows into a convex arch. It is the most popular edge profile for natural stone countertops.
The kitchen table was made with a slab of Crema Bordeaux to match the counter and bar tops. A custom base was made, allowing the team to use as much of the slab as possible to seat the most people.
The backsplashes feature 4×4 Tumbled Slate Tile with metal decorative accents. The metal accents, from Linda Paul Studio, help give the kitchen an elegant yet rustic Mediterranean style while still feeling warm and like home.
