Tuscan Kitchens



Updating your kitchen doesn’t have to break the bank. Painting your existing cabinets and adding a fun new backsplash can make an old kitchen instantly appear 10 years younger.




Warmly-stained maple and black cabinetry combine to create an unfitted English cottage kitchen. The beadboard-paneled breakfast bar with a stainless steel countertop and pot rack complete a sophisticated yet highly practical kitchen space.



A hammered copper sink adds a rustic flair against the green glass subway tiles and recycled glass counters.

Cherry cabinets combined with Brazilian cherry wood flooring, a black granite countertop and a black glass chandelier complete this transitional kitchen.
