Forest Ink & Apricot: A Breccia Kitchen
Forest-green cabinetry, an apricot island, richly veined Breccia stone, fluted walnut and smoked-glass pendants create a dramatic but workable kitchen.
The design notes
What makes this room work.
Resolve the work aisle before the stone edge
Map open appliance doors, sink and cooktop positions, the prep aisle and stools at full pull-out. Keep hot surfaces away from the seating run and confirm the overhang support with the fabricator. The waterfall is optional; a simple edge can retain the Breccia and apricot contrast when access or budget is tighter.
Use the slab to calibrate both lacquers
Approve the actual Breccia slab and seam map before finalizing forest green and apricot because natural burgundy veining can shift their balance. View large lacquer samples from the doorway and island under daylight and pendants. Reserve fluted walnut for one tall block so grain interrupts the gloss without fragmenting the room.
Mock up the pendants and seats at full scale
The real smoked-glass pendant is 16 inches wide, so hang paper circles and check sightlines, quantity and spacing over the finished island. Confirm rod drop, ceiling support and dimming. Measure the counter stool's actual 24.8-inch seat height separately from the concept and provide independent task lighting beneath wall cabinets.
Make it yours
Borrow the idea.
Keep existing perimeter cabinets and repaint only the island apricot, then introduce forest green at a pantry or nearby wall. A Breccia remnant, one fluted-walnut panel, ecru counter stools and a smoked-glass pendant can establish the room's saturated, mineral and tactile structure without replacing the full kitchen.
Before you bring it home
- Map appliance doors, work aisle, sink and cooktop, seating overhang, pulled-out stools, dining route and pendant sightlines.
- Approve the actual Breccia with forest and apricot lacquers, walnut, ecru and smoked-glass samples in day and evening light.
- Confirm fabrication, support and stone care, stool seat height, hardware spacing, electrical load, dimmer, ventilation and delivery access.

Wardell Counter Stool — Natural Linen
A natural-linen counter stool with a fixed pedestal base and antique-brass-finish detailing.
This is the counter-height Natural Linen variant, not the taller barstool. The listed seat height is 24.8 inches and width is 15 inches. Confirm those dimensions against the finished counter, allow comfortable spacing and review upholstery care and delivery access.
The official US page displayed the Natural Linen counter stool, active add-to-basket control and delivery from two weeks on October 26, 2026. Confirm current stock and location-specific delivery before ordering.
Why it fitsNatural linen and antique-brass-finish detailing supply the island's quiet upholstered seating note. The real Wardell has a compact fixed pedestal and a listed 24.8-inch seat height rather than the concept's wooden legs, so check counter clearance, spacing, fabric care and the complete delivery route.

Why it fitsThe restrained linear pull gives glossy forest cabinetry a precise metal line.
