Kitchen Color Palette is Set

So, not much happening at the house that is "showable."  We are moving ahead.  Framing of the kitchen is nearing completion.  We are waiting on the skylights before cutting holes in the ceiling, though.  Plumbers will be in this weekend and next week to do their stuff. But none of that really photographs well.

Last week, though, Laura and I, along with our Architect, Mason Miller, decided on the final color palette for the kitchen.

The Island, which will be topped and wrapped down the sides with Caesarstone is getting their "ginger" color, which also didn't really show up well in their promo photos:

Essentially, its this color:

I'll see if I can dig up a sample of the tile floor that we are going with for the mud / laundry / powder room and post that soon also.
