More Design Questions and Answers
What if I love one tile pattern for the floor and another for the countertop, but they don't match?
Which product do you absolutely love and which one could you do without? If you love the countertop because of its color and easy maintenance, we'll find a tile to complement it. It's easy to love many items, but impossible to make them all work together. It's always difficult to make a big decorating decision in a couple of hours. We invite you to visit the KB Home Studio anytime and as many times as you'd like, to browse and identify items that you prefer. Design consultants are available to help answer your questions and help you make the best selection decisions for your lifestyle.
What cabinet stain goes best with hardwood floors?
The wood surfaces in your home don't have to match, but should complement each other. Sometimes a dark wood and light wood look better than trying to match wood stain colors exactly. Let your KB Home Studio design consultant help you determine the best combination.
How do I coordinate my carpeting with my kitchen flooring selection?
In most new homes, the transitions from room to room are very noticeable. The colors, patterns and textures of adjoining floors need to agree at the threshold. The strip that covers the threshold is called a "saddle." Saddles come in a variety of materials (rubber, plastic and wood) which smooth the transition. But stay aware of the patterns and where they meet. For example, if you choose patterned carpeting, you wouldn't want it to meet a clashing pattern in the kitchen.
