Hello, thanks for you question. The granite is called Vyara Gold Granite. It definitely has green, gold and earth tones, though each slab and veining will vary, depending on where it was quarried. The slabs for this kitchen were procured from EleMar Oregon. The same granite material was paired here with Oceanside glass mosaics, to elevate the green tones present in the slab.

I would reupholster the rosewood furniture in natural canvas or a natural linen look . Ask the upholsterer to do the job with NO welting. That will make it look more contemporary. Then stop by West Elm, Pottery Barn, or Crate & Barrel for some brightly colored pillows. I'm thinking coral might work well with your tile, but you be the judge of what color works best with it. For now we'll assume it's coral. So I'd like to see one wall painted coral if you're so inclined. Otherwise, I'd leave the walls white. Next, let's cover some of that tile you don't like. Two choice: 1. A rug you'll take with you. Perhaps a shaggy offwhite one. 2. A rug you'll leave in your rental. This could be a large piece of carpeting, cut and bound like a rug. Measure for size before going to the carpet store. Most carpeting is 12' wide, so figure on making a rug 12 x something so that there is no waste, or you could make a couple of 6 x somethings. If you could change out the rosewood coffee table for another, I think you'd be happier with the furniture. It needs some variety. Even a couple of small tables from IKEA could work for 6 to 8 months.

Must Know About Integrated Sink
Q
Comments (0)
The integrated sink is getting more popular lately because of its seamless design and irresistible look. Integrated sinks are made from the same material as the countertop. For example, if your countertop is made from quartz, then the sink is within the piece without any slit. This option is only valid for materials flexible enough to be fabricated into the shape of a sink basin, include quartz, marble, and solid surface. People adore the seamless appearance of a smooth transition from sink to surface. What you might not know is, the integrated sink is produced by the countertop manufacturer, not the sink manufacturer. Integrated sinks are fused in place in the countertop factory. There is a wide variety of integrated sinks, as they are available in quartz, copper, marble, concrete, etc. in elegant finishes to complement your kitchen and bathroom designs. Besides the appealing look, the integrated sink also brings many benefits that might surprise you. 1. Low Maintenance One-piece construction means no crevices for capturing dirt, hair, or other food debris. The materials used to make integrated sinks are majority stain resistant. Some are even resilient to scratches and antibacterial even without polishing. These make cleaning easier and save your time on maintaining the quality of the surface. It is the ideal kind of sink for the public washroom in your home that needs a quick refresh after every guest uses the room. 2. Easy to Install As the integrated sink and the countertop are joined, your supplier can complete the installation in a short time at an affordable price. A DIY installation is not recommended though. 3.Safer to Use Unlike integrated sinks, the common sinks are made from different material than the countertop. There might be the uneven thickness of surface materials, finishes, or shape of accessories that can be harmful to you or the kids. Integrated sinks are connected with the countertop without any cut-in between, making it a safer choice for home. 4.Stylish Designs For integrated sinks, there are numerous materials, shapes, and styles to review. For the shape, you can get either round, square, or layered. Bended and straight style integrated sinks are available too. In addition, you can also match your integrated sink design with the backsplash of your kitchen and wall in the bathroom to express sophistication. There are limited materials that are versatile enough to be fabricated into integrated sinks. A primary factor that must be taken into consideration when choosing an integrated sink is that the countertop and the sink are permanently joined and should be treated as a single unit. Therefore, if the sink or countertop is damaged or cracked, the other piece must also be replaced. Below are a few popular types of integrated sink – and the advantages of each material. 1. Quartz Sink Quartz sink is a simple and elegant engineered surface. There is a wide variety of colours to choose from, which are fade-proof due to the product’s inherent characteristics. As this material is non-porous (thus more hygienic), it is not a problem to rinse vegetables and other food in the sink. Moreover, quartz sink is heat resistant, so hot pots can be placed directly into it after cooking. Advantages of Quartz Sink Highly durable Less noise due to its natural sound-proofing quality Smooth surface – easy to maintain Non-absorbent, stain or dirt can be easily removed Hygienic – bacteria and odor resistant Long-lasting color and uniformity Heat resistant Granite Sink One of the hardest known minerals, granite is the first choice of natural rock when a combination of durability and aesthetics is required. The few advantages of a granite sink are: Gorgeous looking Highly durable Resistant to water mark and scratches Cheaper compared to quartz Solid Surface Sink The installation of solid surface countertop has been increasingly popular in home construction and remodeling projects. It is heated and fabricated to form top sheets of countertop and sink together. Dust resistant Antibacterial Contains recycled content Invisible seams Non-porous Resistant to heat Integrated sink is a durable, seamless alternative for homeowners who desire something other than a regular stainless steel sink in the kitchen, or an old tile vanity top in their bathroom. Integrated sinks are made of materials with smooth yet stain resistant surfaces (with many finishes to opt for). The decision to choose one over another may be based on which qualities you are looking for in a sink.
