Mixed Materials Add Interest
For the eat-in kitchen we started with the Hunter Douglas Silhouettes on the windows to soften the harsh Florida light that can ruin furniture and floors within months. As additional decoration we added plain cornice boards in turquoises and browns with a half-inch cord in a contrasting color.
The table and chairs were a great find at a local store and the mixture of stainless steel and wood table with the leather and wicker chairs give a modernity to what could be a beach look.
The chandelier was a favorite. Made by Schonbek, this modern piece is covered in multi-colored Swarovski crystals which throw rays of light around the kitchen at night.
