In this episode of Houzz TV Live, Jennifer Kizzee gives a virtual tour of her renovated kitchen in Houston. Kizzee, who has young kids, embraced a low-maintenance strategy by using durable materials like marble-look quartz countertops, wood-look luxury vinyl plank flooring and washable wallpaper in a nearby hallway. She repurposed her cabinets but updated them with more drawer storage, a blue-gray paint color (Repose Gray by Sherwin-Williams) and a new white oak cabinet tower. A beveled subway tile feature wall and lots of brass finishes punch up the design.

The timber against the white colour scheme is so seamless, on top of the low maintenance required - this is a great idea.
One of the best designs I’ve seen recently. I love everything about it. Such a great job creating the “room divider” with storage. You still maintained open concept, but the rooms are defined.
Love the pony wall idea in the last 90 seconds - “it’s my sideboard”. Genius!
