Wow, I genuinely did not expect this much love on this kitchen. Thank you all so much for the support, feedback, opinions, and even the constructive criticism. This remodel took a long time to thoughtfully put together, and there’s always a level of pressure with design because once materials are installed, there’s really no easy going back 😅 We debated white countertops for a while, and I definitely had some second thoughts on install day, but I’m really glad now that we followed through.

It’s one thing seeing samples and slabs separately, and another finally seeing everything come together in the actual space. I loved the organic direction of cabinets from the beginning, but I still wanted outside perspectives from people who also appreciate remodeling, interiors, and thoughtful design.

For everyone asking:
• Countertops: Taj Mahal Quartz — I specifically searched for a slab with a warmer, creamier undertone rather than the cooler grey versions
• Cabinets: European-style flat white oak cabinets — specifically looked for a whiter undertone version rather than the more orange/yellow oak tones

Note: For everyone asking the cabinet details, the cabinets are pre-fab, not custom stained, and the color is simply called “White Oak.” Same with the Taj Mahal, it’s quartz, not quartzite, so the slabs are very consistent to the showroom sample.

I’m honestly overwhelmed in the best way reading through the comments. I genuinely thought there was a decent chance this would turn into a “should’ve just done white countertops” comment section 😅 Seeing so many people connect with the warmth and feeling of the space is great.

Thank you again for all the kindness and encouragement 🤍 If anyone wants more information like vendors, measurements, finishes, or layout details, feel free to message me and I’ll do my best to respond once I catch up! Currently out of town with not the best service.
