Ready for our latest and greatest ‘Get This Look’ post? Today we’re sharing all the details on how to recreate this glamorous gray kitchen from a recent Utah Valley Parade of Homes by Arive Homes.

Get This Look: Glamorous Gray Kitchen | Give your kitchen a classic modern look with these tips for recreating this beautiful gray kitchen with a white island, marble countertops, and a contrast tile backsplash. #remodelaholic #getthislook

Gray and white are classic, tried-and-true colors to use in a kitchen design. What makes this heart of the home standout is the combination of subtle pops of color, sleek chrome fixtures, and unexpected accents like the backsplash and floral cafe curtain. Plus, who doesn’t love a luxurious kitchen island? In fact, you can create your own marble kitchen island at a fraction of the cost with our DIY marble island tutorial.

Now it’s time to design your own glamorous gray kitchen! Read on for our six tips and product recommendations. And in case you missed them, check out previous ‘Get This Look’ posts from this very same home: Outdoors Camping Theme Kids’ Bedroom, Colorful Eclectic Teen Girl Bedroom, and Bold Jewel Toned Statement Living Room.

3. Create a Backsplash Accent

The black and white hexagon tile backsplash above the kitchen stove adds a great visual element while keeping with the neutral color palette. Follow suit and select neutral colored tile when creating your own backsplash accent to keep it cohesive with the rest of the space.

4. Anchor the Space with a White Kitchen Island

Nothing anchors a kitchen quite like a substantial island complete with an extra sink and room for barstools. You don’t have to spend thousands to get the kitchen island of your dreams. Create your own DIY marble island with a tutorial from Nina Hendrick Design Co. featured on Remodelaholic.

5. Choose Sophisticated Metal Bar Stools

The chrome barstools in this gray kitchen echo the stainless steel appliances found throughout and the cool gray paint color of the kitchen cabinets. With a larger kitchen island like this one, you have the space to add metal bar stools with full backs. If you’re working with a smaller space you may want to choose backless stools.

Options: modern farmhouse bar stool, adjustable bar stool, everly bar stool, counter bar stool, metal cafe bar stool, backed adjustable bar stool

Sophisticated gray kitchen cabinets, with a white farmhouse style accent cabinet for the sink, and colorful decor #remodelaholic #getthislook

6. Add Subtle Pops of Coordinated Color

While gray and white are the dominant colors in this kitchen, the designer added some character with subtle yellow accents scattered throughout the space. Yellow works especially well with gray as seen here. We love the yellow KitchenAid mixer paired with a matching KitchenAid tea kettle. Adding pops of color help liven up the space and give it some personality.

Options: KitchenAid mixer, yellow tea kettle, KitchenAid tea kettle, vegetable kitchen towel, yellow kitchen towels, yellow pot holders, 3-piece mixing bowl set, melamine mixing bowls, cake stand

Stunning gray kitchen cabinets with french door refrigerator, farmhouse style accent cabinets, a built-in microwave, and a double in-wall oven #remodelaholic #getthislook
