Lively Gray Article:

The gray ceiling and walls coupled with the white, staggered-height upper cabinetry create depth and drama in this Stony Brook kitchen. "A light, clean and transitional style was a priority," says Mount Sinai designer David Williams, a member of the Long Island chapter of the Interior Design Society. "I have always believed gray and earth tones enhance the look of stainless steel, granite and soft hues in white Carrara marble, all of which were used in this project," says Williams. The countertops are steel-gray granite, and the floor is a very dark gray tile, he says. "The overall finished appearance was that of light, clean lines and an exhilarating feel of space."
