I wanted this pantry to feel both traditional and modern. Bari J Ackerman
Blending slab cabinetry and brass hardware
"I wanted this pantry to feel both traditional and modern. I did this by blending modern slab cabinetry and gorgeous traditional brass hardware from Modern Matters with historic wallpaper and fabric by William Morris.
The extra large appliance pulls on the two cabinets that flank the countertop contrast but add an additional pop of shiny texture." - Bari

Starburst hardware mimics floor tile
"The thing that I really love is that the starbursts on here mimic whats on the floor here. I also chose marble tile mixed with Morris patterned tile." - Bari

Lighting to complement the hardware
"For lighting, I went full on modern with fixtures that mix matte black with gold, picking up both the color of the soapstone and that of the hardware. " - Bari
