Holgate MB, 1 Lt Pendant | Uttermost I think this would be a great look! It is in the matte black and would complement everything in the kitchen very nicely.

With 1-60 watt max Edison socket and includes 15'wire, and 3-12" stems & 1-6" stem for adjustable installation. Dimensions: 10 H X 14 Dia. (in)
This is the one I had in mind. I really like the look and the size. Simple but a beautiful design. Even though it uses Edison bulbs it can use up to 100 watt. So with clear glass and bright Edison bulb you will have plenty of light. #22169 $230 ea Simple elegance best describes the extra-large clear blown glass on this transitional pendant. Calix Nickel features a brushed nickel metal finish. The large circle accent above the glass adds a bold graphic element. With 1-100 watt max Edison socket.

Dimensions: 14 H X 9 W X 4 D (in)
$230 ea Nice look for over the Island. Simple. It does have an antique brass fitting. You can get away with that because we are using black fixtures but just want you to be aware. Still looking. #22127 Simple elegance best describes the extra-large clear blown glass on this transitional pendant. Calix features an aged brass metal finish which has an ombre effect giving a deeper hue of antique darkening to some areas and brightening on others. The large circle accent above the glass adds a bold graphic element. 1-100 watt max Edison socket. Includes 15' wire, and 3-12" stems & 1-6" stem for adjustable installation. Dimensions: 23 H X 16 Dia. (in)
If you decide you want a pop of color in the kitchen this is an option for the lights over the island. $315 each DELRAY BLUE, 1 LT PENDANt #21516 Fresh modern 1 Lt.

Here is another option. This one is dark gray but still a great look. I suspect this price is lower than the Blanco $750
This is the sink I showed you at Ferguson. It comes in 30" or 33". Using a 33" gives you a bit more counter space than a 36" but more room in the sink than a 36" If you click on the link to the site you can read all about it. I don't have pricing yet - working on that. There may be less expensive options for the same look (but different material) at Home Depot or Lowe's. Didn't find any options I liked at Build.com
Love the drawers on island! BM: Me too!
If wine opening is too big (not needed for number of bottles we keep) add an open shelf above or below
Love the white/black!!!
The inside of the appliance garage is lined with painted beadboard and features two floating shelves made out of cherrywood. “Since I figured the appliance garage would often be open, I wanted to make sure the inside looked just as good as the outside,” Lewis says.
Put a dimmer on under cabinet lighting so it can double as mood lighting for dinner or bright light for tasks.
With just a little overlay on the island, no support is necessary.
Use shiplap for the island!
Great color for the island; consider navy or dark grey to pull the white and black of the kitchen together.
If using stainless steel stove vent, extend the tile up to the ceiling
Frame the stove/oven with shelves and to the right start the coffee bar with microwave over this area
Consider Heritage Red for door inside and out repainted.
Fully paint both sides of the door during remodel of kitchen and other areas.
For the pocket door into the laundry, think of a great color like this one: green French door (Southfield Green by Benjamin Moore)
Love the tile and great change from subway. Also love the cup cabinet handles creamy colors!!
If you have enough room to prep a meal, that’s really all you need, and in so many kitchens long stretches of counter space go unused anyway, with the island being the go-to prep space. Consider trading off 24 to 48 inches of counter for one or two extra full-height pantry cabinets, or cabinets that integrate your major appliances, for a more efficient use of space.
Sometimes all you need to make a kitchen feel decluttered and a bit more open is a simple tray. Gathering items like a knife rack, a spoon bin, a mortar and pestle and a kitchen timer all on a tray or cutting board visually tricks our brain into seeing them as organized. It’s a quick trick that can make a big difference to your sense of visual organization.
Add doors on both sides of islands to access either side!
Could have a dark sink like this one to add some black tie-in.
Black and White with wood table...
Love the longer subway tile!! Trending now...
Like the shallow drawer for coffee pods
Pullout idea for the coffee bar.
Water tap for the coffee bar is a great add!
While engineered quartz may be the more common countertop material request, designer Kate Roos sees another material on the rise. “For a few years now, quartzite has been gaining popularity with many of my clients,” she says. “They want a natural stone but don’t care for the look of granite or the maintenance and sensitivity of marble. Quartzite is the perfect option.”
Solid quartz....some designers believe the marble look is becoming dated.
Easy solution; just make sure there's electric here!
Slide out garage for mixer; be sure there's electric!!
STILL LIKE CONCRETE FOR A COUNTERTOP MATERIAL. “I’ve been using thick concrete for kitchen countertops for more than 20 years,” she says. “I prefer a matte finish because it’s easily cleaned and doesn’t show fingerprints and smudges.”
See note! Remember that the island will take alot of abuse so stain would hold up better than paint. White-and-wood combo. Walnut island in desert sand stain. Perimeter cabinets painted in Dover White by Sherwin-Williams. “I chose the soft white paint for a bright, clean, classic look,” Rasmussen says. “Since the island is the workhorse in this kitchen, stain is a practical yet beautiful choice. With the trash pullout and counter stools, and with kicking feet and pots and pans being pulled out of the big drawers, the stain will take the abuse and can be easily touched up.” Other special features. Calacatta marble subway tile backsplash. Gray wall paint (Repose Gray by Sherwin-Williams). Quartz countertops.
Love the lighting!!!! Above and below cabinets.
Use built-in organizers!!
Love the old world look of the stove, but this brand is $11K!!
add drying bars!!!
like the cabinet pullout!
Look for the hutch! Includes both open and closed storage, with shelves for cookbooks, counters for serving trays, drawers for entertaining items, and attractive textured glass and wire-front cabinets for storage of small appliances.
The upper cabinets on either side of the range feature bifold doors, an ergonomic choice that allows easily access the contents without having to reach around a cabinet door when cooking.
Love the marble like quartz for a backsplash
love the big island where people can sit and have a drink while I cook. also. the appliance or bread garages here.
like the glass backsplash
Before, the existing linoleum in the kitchen was different from the rest of the flooring. The new floors throughout the first floor of the townhouse are luxury vinyl tile that looks like hardwood. This surface is durable — it can handle scratches from the couple’s two cats and water and cooking spills. With a cork underlayment beneath it, it is softer underfoot than real hardwood. Try to get flooring that matches living room. Might be good to have a small storage for wine like this.
Keep the countertop light, but having a vein run through it like this adds some drama and keeps it from being so boring. LOVE THE LARGE BOTTOM CABINETS!
These are the dining chairs that I have had in mind for your dining room table. Dining chairs are really expensive and these are very nice and very reasonable at $212 each. You should be able to see them in the showroom when we shop but I really love these chairs. Solid and comfortable. Featuring an open framed inset back with comfortable roll pleated and button tufted taupe brown chenille fabric, trimmed with antique brass hand hammered nails, on oak legs stained in a light walnut. Seat height is 20".
