We just finished up this lovely project of cabinets and countertops and while working, I met the artist Krista Vind. Her innovative creativity and her artistic inclusion of textures throughout the home made the spaces on this project stand out. The cabinetry in this kitchen already had a lovely texture of oyster-painted oak selected by our client, but the textures Krista used to accent the cabinetry really made for a stunning look. Krista painted the beautiful knee wall using metallic paints and transformed the wall in the dining room using plaster and metallic waxes. Both works of art are unique and bring energy and a modern touch to the spaces. I love what Krista did with the light switches too, hiding them so they wouldn’t take away from the beautiful marble backsplash tile. Krista also refurbished the vanity using plaster, silver leaf, and lightly tinted waxes, just stunning.
