From the Design Studio: Elephant's Breath

We took more than the complex shade of mid-gray with a hint of magenta from Farrow & Ball's calming Elephant's Breath paint color. We also chose Elephant's Breath as our name for this showroom kitchen because it embodies the display's soothing character and palette.

With warmth and symmetry, Elephant's Breath represents the most traditional design in our showroom.

It simultaneously expresses the innovations in design and function that homeowners have come to expect in a Bluebell kitchen. Simple, painted maple perimeter cabinetry - from our own Bluebell Private Label line - is filled with wondrous practical task and storage options.

The island base in oiled walnut and built-in oak lifestyle hutch, both crafted like sturdy-yet-beautiful freestanding furniture, harken back to when kitchens were far more utilitarian. Warm white natural stone has been transformed into countertops and a feature-rich apron fronted sink.

The clever baker's cabinet holds all the equipment and dry ingredients needed to create sweet and savory deliciousness, and the 60-inch gas range is a cook's dream. Get all the details behind this kitchen's design in the Elephant's Breath issue of our From the Design Studio magazine.
