A striking blend of decorative elements found in South America and Mexico were used to create a vintage Mexican kitchen with a warm, inviting ambiance. Wall cabinets were eschewed to achieve an open, light-filled experience. As backgrounds, the aged walls were created with an Intonachino plaster and Saltillo floor tiles provide the foundation. Turquoise ceramic backsplash tiles, carved wood window valances, aged copper sinks and wrought iron light fixtures combine to enrich the space’s artistry.  The centerpiece of the kitchen is a 10-foot turquoise island with a black walnut countertop; the mix of hardware pieces provides rich accents to the knotty alder cabinetry, some of which is set into stone alcoves.  All the various colors and textures combine to exude the feel of a hearth-centered space, rooted in the organic style of Mexico.
