Absolute Black Granite in a Kitchen Remodel
The Absolute Black Granite Updates a 1980s Kitchen
We recently had the privileged of working with a homeowner in Northwest Austin when they remodeled the kitchen in their 1980s home. The light wood cabinets were in great shape and the configuration of the kitchen suited the homeowners well. The addition of Absolute Black Granite brings this kitchen into the year 2010 and provides the gorgeous counters that are in such high demand in established neighborhoods such as this one where the original counters were laminate, or occasionally tile.
Tumbled Stone Back Splash
This kitchen also had a tumbled stone back splash set on the diagonal.
This type of tile set takes more time and patience but looks fabulous when done, especially with the occasional inset black granite tiles. The edge on this granite is full bull nose. This kitchen required two slabs of 3 cm granite – the photos don’t show well that in addition to the long sink counter, island and cook top counter, the kitchen also has a large breakfast counter.

Masculine Kitchen in Allendale in Northwest Austin
Most of the homes in Allendale in Northwest Austin are older, and frequently we see photos of Allendale Re-Dos, or remodels. We very very surprised and fortunate, therefore, to have a chance to work with the builder of this high-end new home in Allendale, designed to the exacting specifications of the single male homeowner. The exterior of the home blends seamlessly with the vintage character of the neighborhood while the interior sports an exceptionally fresh, yet subtly masculine look. The kitchen in particular calls upon colors that remind us of a custom tailored suit – greys and blacks, with just the right amount of punch.

Granite Edges: Defining Style

Do you see how unusual and gorgeous this Antique Brown granite kitchen counter is with the itty bitty travertine tiles and the copper sink?

When designing your kitchen, consider the interplay between the colors and materials. Strive for a mixture of reflective surfaces (the granite, and the stainless steel) and matte finishes (the travertine tiles between the countertops). This designer kitchen is simply gorgeous – a professionally coordinated materials palette that mixes light and dark natural materials with semi-custom cabinetry. The under-mount small copper sink adds convenience for the multi-cook kitchen. Antique Brown granite and travertine tile – a winning combination!

Uba Tuba Granite is Always in Style
When our client in Spicewood Estates in Northwest Austin asked about under-mounting a “large” kitchen sink, we said “sure”!
Uba Tuba Granite Surrounds a Giant Farmhouse Sink
This one turned out to be one of the bigger ones – it weighs several hundred pounds and took three men to place it into position under the counter. The flat-polish on this uba tuba granite compliments the urban cottage feel of this kitchen while the farmhouse style sink adds extra capacity in an existing sink cabinet that was narrower than the homeowner would have preferred. We can help make the kitchen of your dreams become reality!
