Designer Notes:

Deborah, an Aiken, SC homeowner, was not sure what she wanted, but she knew she wanted something different. She did not want something that everyone else had. Her kitchen has white cabinets and dark wooden floors. She decided on incorporating different colored granite for her kitchen countertops for a dramatic and unique look. She really liked the White Springs granite for the island, so trying to find the right color to do the surround was a little bit of challenge. When I showed her an Angola Black granite countertop, Deborah was thrilled! The granite went very well with the stainless steel and black appliances in the room. Delta faucets and a Kohler sink were also added to complete the look for the kitchen. I also suggested a waterfall end to her island, in order to give it a distinctive look. It turned out absolutely stunning!
