From Dark to Light

Colorful accents add a playful touch that distinguishes this kitchen from its more formal surroundings. Pairing the primary colors of the table and island with soothing hues keeps the space from looking juvenile.

The island is topped with a chopping block, making it suitable for meal prep or as a dining surface for informal meals.
