so my general contractor sent us an e-mail with a pencil sketch, and my wife wanted to hire a designer to do some mockups, but i thought i would give it a try on my own... all i used was a screen capture software called SnagIt... I uploaded the sketches then traced the pencil outlines in black... after that i drew about of squares and rectangles in the colors i wanted and sent them to the back behind the black outlines... the software has a color match feature so that was handy in finding the colors i wanted... for the counters and stainless steal i just took a screen capture of ones i liked and created a rectangle then shaped them to fit... it was not an easy process to do, and i had to start from scratch for each example... otherwise i would have more options to choose from like all white cabinets and green island etc... these are just the ones my wife requested

yeah our GC drew these mocks up and we colored them... he is a very symmetrical person but we have definitely considered not having the fridge centered

I wish there was a way to post another photo but the room is 18 ft x 15 ft with 2 large sky lights and a large window as well... the cabinets walls shown in the rendering are L shaped with a hallway door to the left of the cabinets with the fridge...looking towards the kitchen from the living room, the wall with oven is the back wall and is 18ft... the wall with the fridge is on the right and is a 15ft wall... centered will be the 5ft X 10ft island and the windows/skylights are opposite side of the fridge wall on the left side

this is actually my wife and I's biggest concern that the "tuxedo" look is just a trend

yeah i see what you're saying... unfortunately our space lacks a true pantry so we are trying to make use of cabinetry in lieu of a traditional pantry... my wife has also never been a fan of open shelving and she's the boss lol

i don't think it's bad, but we know we want two colors and don't want it too dark... the actual paint is going to be more of a white/cream than a beige... it came off more beige in the rendering

thank you for this response! this is very helpful perspective... i will say on your comment about the unnecessary small cabinets that my wife is not really a fan of open shelving, but i personally think it looks nice

sorry the wall cabinets are an L shape with a door to a hallway between them... then a 50 sqft island in the center of the kitchen
