What a beautiful fall day to soak up the sun and admire the changing colors! And how about grabbing a front row seat on these new benches with floating tables outside @coylesbakeshop in Greenwood?

There's something magical about sitting inside with the ability to look out onto the world while the rain falls just on the other side of the glass. Add in your favorite hot drink and a warm pastry, maybe even a little steam on the window, and this is what Seattle fall is all about! It's that ultimate feeling of cozy and why we love to design outdoor connections that make any weather worth looking out on.

For this home nestled in a wooded area, the dark green tones of the outdoors is brought in through a teal conversation varnish on flat panel cabinets in the kitchen. Lighting and plug moulds are hidden on the underside of the cabinets and medium-stained oak shelf so that the marble backsplash can be completely free of blemish. We used a thinner marble for the backsplash and countertop and created a recess at the top of the cabinets so this edge could float.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
To maintain a seamless feel, all appliances including the fridge, dishwasher, hood, and pantry are hidden behind matching panels to they read as one with the cabinetry. For a clean space that looks simple and elegant, every detail counts!

Speaking of outdoor seating on beautiful fall days - did you know that @coylesbakeshop now has outdoor seating? There are plenty of seating options and, of course, tables for your favorite pastry and hot drink on a sunny, crisp day!

Are you out there soaking up the fall sun? Every sunny day in the Seattle fall weather is totally worth grabbing a scarf or warm jacket for! Did you have a coffee at one of the outdoor tables at your favorite cafe or have your eyes set on an outdoor patio or deck for happy hour? We want to hear about your favorite spaces!
