Seeing Green
The U-shaped configuration of the kitchen remains the same, but cabinets, appliances, sink, and a cushy cork floor are sharp updates. “The cork is soft and never shows anything,” Bill says. “It has a grayish cast that is nice with the stainless finishes.” The swirling grain of the brown marble countertops complements the variegated coloring of the cork floor. Mirrored backsplashes and a stainless-steel panel behind the range hood reflect the light and make the room feel open. “It’s a little, skinny galley kitchen, and I thought about making it larger,” Bill says, “but it’s really a perfect size for me.”
