Takes inspiration from turn-of-the century industrial era. Often seen in converted lofts or buildings that were originally industrial premises. Aims to create open space floor plans. Visible supports and infrastructure, which may include exposed brick, beams or ductwork.

Incorporates authentic materials: iron, steel, woodgrain and glass. “Restoration” style fixtures. Unique non-functional objects used as features, such as ladders. Monochromatic palette, stainless steel appliances, beveled ceramic subway tiles, stainless steel or concrete countertops, concrete floors, linear hardware and flat cabinet doors.

This seaside style is a clean, transitional style with an airy and open feel. Painted finishes, especially whites, greys and a spectrum of blues – from Oxford Blue to Sea Glass – carry the nautical aesthetic.

Furniture style cabinetry, glass doors, open shelving, beadboard, beaded doors and shiplap keep the beachy vibe. White linen and cotton lend a casual feel. Organic nautical materials such as rope, rattan, sisal, jute, and driftwood signal the style’s maritime past. Contrast the clean white with stripes, plaids, buffalo checks, sea motifs (lobsters, whales and anchors.)

Simplicity, utility and beauty – a pure, pared back style that is centered on functionality, clean lines and understated elegance. The Scandinavian style emerged in the 1950’s in Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Finland and Iceland.

Minimalist look with rounded contours: slab doors on cabinets, open shelves, low couches, and leather-backed wood chairs. Sleek surfaces dominate with form-pressed wood, plastics, anodized or enameled aluminum or pressed steel. Monochromatic palette of whites and neutral grays with pops of bright accent colors. Minimal ornamentation keeps the atmosphere warm, calm and spacious.

Unpretentious style with a collected-over-time look, distressed furnishings and vintage finishes. All of the charm of a homestead farmhouse, but updated with modern conveniences. Kitchens showcase the style’s main view: function above all else with farm sinks and large butcher block islands. Painted cabinets with vintage hardware, white subway tile backsplashes, open shelving stores necessities and glass-front cabinets to showcase antique dishware says “Farmhouse.” Sturdy, time-tested furniture handcrafted from distressed woods, steel and wrought iron. Color palette with neutrals – white, grey, cream, beige, plus earthy tones slate and sage.

The Transitional style features a balance between Traditional and Contemporary designs. It has elements of classic design and proportions, but with cleaner, more fluid lines. Neutral taupe, tan and vanilla paint colors help achieve serene and timeless atmosphere. To make up for the lack of color, infuse the design with interesting textures and materials including glass, steel, concrete and marble. Medium to dark wood cabinetry has a lack of ornamentation to keep the focus on the simplicity and sophistication of the design.

This warm and inviting style reflects the visual splendor of the coastal regions of Spain, Greece and Italy. Curves are big part of this look. Add it with hardware, faucets, a curved kitchen island or a flared hood. Rich but unpretentious hues echo the earth, sea and sky.

Bring this luscious mix of cultures to your project with a sculpted edge on countertops, ornate corbels and posts, backsplashes with colorful mosaic tiles and wrought iron light fixtures. Textured finishes on walls meet stone and wood floors covered with antique rugs.
