Ann decided it was time for a change after her 19-year-old home was damaged beyond repair in a house fire. An unfortunate circumstance brought Ann a new opportunity – the chance to design her dream kitchen. Ann’s natural granite countertops not only look amazing but provide durability and resilience – both must-have features in any busy kitchen.

This couple undertook a full renovation of their new, 25-year old home in London, Ontario. By starting from scratch they were able to get the kitchen of their dreams and combine Lennox Granite and Coarse Pepper Quartz to create a look you will love.

This couple wanted to create a soothing, cottage-like feel in their kitchen and neutralize the gold tones in their natural maple cabinets. By combining a Hanstone® Quartz counter in Sand Dune™ on the workspace paired with a Fantasy Brown Granite lunch counter, they created the lake-side look they were going for!
