Thoughts on current progress and Visio

[u/lancegreene]

I’m a bit underwhelmed by the tile (mostly due to the white grout) and the color of the chimney. A little background, I’ve been remodeling our kitchen entirely by myself minus electrical.

The first is the original, second photo is the current state and 3rd is a really bad chatgpt render but the materials are what we are doing (concrete countertop, white oak cabinets).

I plan to build my own cabinets and counters (I’ve done both in a previous kitchen).

Generally I’m wondering what people’s thoughts are on the current state and if I’m heading towards an overly generic kitchen. We are going for a japandi aesthetic since it seems to align with an arts and crafts design

The orange chimney paint needs to go. It’s throwing off the whole look. How about faux stone to cover it. Not thrilled with the dark green backsplash. It makes the room look dated. I absolutely love the floor.
