Berkshire Estate: Basement Family Room + Kitchen

Today we're wrapping up the BERKSHIRE ESTATE with the

BASEMENT FAMILY ROOM + KITCHEN.

Brooke Jones Designs Basement Kitchen White Cabinets Floating Shelves

This area is right off the pool and hot tub and we new little wet feet would be trampling in and out to grab drinks and snack. To prevent the flooring from getting wrecked with water damage, we used stained concrete for the floor for the kitchen/pool table area.

We repeated similar materials to the main kitchen, as well:

Concrete counter tops, subway tile, industrial nickle pulls, etc.

So what do you think? Is the BERKSHIRE ESTATE a place you could call home?

Berkshire Estate: Family Room + Patio

Outdoor patios of yesteryear use to be the last space to be designed in a home. Most people would buy a matching patio set (usually made of wrought iron), add an outdoor umbrella and call it good.

Today's patios are more like outdoor family spaces, with soft weather resistant fabrics,

pillows, sofas, end tables, etc. Take a look at the

BERKSHIRE'S FAMILY ROOM + PATIO,

and how similar the indoor/outdoor spaces are!

The fire pit was custom built by the same concrete company that made all the counter tops.

You can also buy similar fire pits at Restoration Hardware.

Modern Brick Fireplace Floating Shelves chunky mantel

Recognize the brick on the fireplace? It's the same brick we used on the exterior. Using the brick was a great way to add a sense of age to the newly built space as well as consistency to the home.

Floating Shelves Accessories Bassett Estate Chair and a Half Flor Tile Rug

We needed a 16x16 rug in the family room, so Flor tile came to our rescue again!

Tomorrow we'll wrap up the remaining spaces, including the guest suite,

the 2nd kitchen and family room, and a couple more bathrooms.

Whew! Almost done with the Berkshire Estate, then on to Canyon Crest!

Berkshire Estate: Main Kitchen + Dining Room

I can finally show off the

MAIN KITCHEN + DINING ROOM.

Brooke Jones Designs Kitchen Concrete Countertops Subway Tile Floating Shelves

So far I've only been able to reveal the floating shelves (as seen on Studio 5)

but there is so much more to this kitchen! I can't decide what I love most:

The stained concrete counter tops? The coffer and bead board ceiling? The sleek stainless steel hood?

The TWO sinks and TWO dishwashers? The fridge that is the size of my first post-college apartment?

There's just too many goodies packed in this modern kitchen design!

Hidden Pantry Door Floating Shelf Porcelain Tile Stainless Steel Appliancces

The above cabinetry is actually a hidden door to the pantry.

I wish I could take credit for that idea but that was 100% my client. So clever!

You can see the hidden opening below.

Anthropologie Bowls Mismatched Green Color Counter Stool

Having a mismatched chair isn't for everyone, I know, but I love it in this space!!

We have so many fun pops of color throughout the floating shelves,

it's fun to have an unexpected pop in the chairs too.

I die over the wire dandelion pendants above the dining room table.

We loved them so much, don't be surprised if we see the mini-version in a few bathrooms coming up.

WHAT IS YOUR FAVORITE PART
OF THIS KITCHEN?
I'd love to hear your feedback!

Tomorrow we'll tackle the hangout spots at the Berkshire, including the main family room and deck!
