WINNER: Seaside Glamour | PKsurroundings in Portsmouth • (603) 817-6347 • pksurroundings.com

Inspired by the seaside, a combination of pale gray and muted teal inset cabinetry set the tone for the space. These are paired with Bianco Neve polished marble countertops. The white marble backsplash tile includes a detail in sea-hued glass. The soft curved shape in the tile is repeated in the design of the hood and in the shape of the polished-nickel cabinetry pulls. In contrast to the cool blue/green tones, there are warm rose-gold details throughout. Rose-gold hardware is used at the island and wet bar while metal mesh inserts highlight the large step-in pantry doors. Inside the pantry you’ll find a surprise of shimmering teal wall tile and gray stained oak shelves. In all, it’s a glamorous space ideal for entertaining.
