Crisp Cream

This kitchen proves that a few thoughtful updates can completely transform a space. Working with Kristen, we kept her existing cabinetry and layout but breathed new life into the room with a fresh tile splashback — the hero of this update.

We chose a soft, handmade-look square tile with gentle tonal variation that catches the light beautifully throughout the day. Its subtle sheen adds texture and warmth against the crisp white cabinetry, while brushed brass tapware brings a touch of modern elegance.

The result is a bright, timeless kitchen that feels fresh and inviting — proof that you don’t always need to start from scratch to make a space feel new again.
