COCOCOZY DESIGN HOUSE

Caesarstone Counter Crush –

February 13, 2019
  • Share

Still pinching myself over the House Beautiful article about the COCOCOZY Design House! Now time for more detail about kitchen and bathroom counters. Last year, I showed you my countertop selection.

As you might recall, Caesarstone, one of the COCOCOZY Design House partners, generously supplied all of the counter material for the kitchen and the bathrooms and I am so happy with my picks:Ā Ā Statuario MaximusĀ for kitchen andĀ Pure White for the master and 2 other bathrooms!

 

Caesarstone Countertops: The Kitchen

I love Caesarstone. I put it in my first kitchen remodel at my tiny cottage in the Hollywood Hills years ago. So this time around, I knew exactly what I wanted and where to get the perfect countertops.

Statuario Maximus for the kitchen has the marble-like veining with none of the drawback of sensitive marble that easily cracks or stains. That’s why I love quartz: pure stone look, durable functionality, and ease to clean.

What I love, love, love about using Caesarstone quartz countertops is how easy it is to upkeep. The surfaces require minimal maintenance, which means these counters will look like new for years and years to come. This is way different than a marble countertop because water or acidic food plus marble can be a nightmare, even if you have it sealed properly. For quartz surfaces, a gentle cleaning with soap and water or a mild detergent will do the trick. Plus, you don’t even need a wax or seal to maintain a long-lasting luster! Caesarstone has a ton of options that are durable, non-porous, and scratch and stain resistant. Win, win.

Here are the guys fabricating the counters right in front of the house!

Here are some facts I learned about the company.Ā  Caesarstone was the first quartz surfacing company to receive ISO 14001 certification (a global standard specifically for environmental protection), ISO 9001 (quality management standard), NSF (public health and safety) certification, and the respected Good Housekeeping Seal from Good Housekeeping Research Institute.

They looked great in the kitchen even before the appliances were put in.

Just a reminder!Ā  This is what the kitchen looked like just as it was getting framed.

My sketches on how I wanted the stove wall to look.

UnbelievableĀ to think this is what the kitchen looked like before. And here’s what the kitchen is looking like now!

The Reveal of the Kitchen Countertops

The finished look is absolutely breathtaking! I just LOVE these countertops and how they look against the subway tiles and black accents. I can already imagine all the great decor and kitchenware on top of these counters.

Just look at how they shine just from the daylight coming in from the window. I am obsessed!

Caesarstone Reveal: The Bathrooms

I chose Pure White for the three bathrooms including the Master because white is simple and clean. It’s almost spa-like and makes me feel super cozy.

The tile really pops in all these bright and airy bathrooms. I think this is the perfect color and material for the COCOCOZY Design House.

Even a little natural light really makes these countertops pop!

What do you think about the kitchen and Bath Countertop look? Let me know below!

Keep it simple. No need for bells and whistles an Keep it simple.  No need for bells and whistles and fancy things to make your house a home.  In this picture, a plant, two chairs I found at the flea market, a layered rug situation and some modern art...de-cluttered space can be equally as inviting as one filled with memories and treasures.  If you are stuck with how to decorate, I say keep it simple.  Purge and start with the basics.  Full disclosure, this is a shot of my living room from a few years ago when I first moved in...I didn’t even have drapes up when this was taken.  I have since added pieces and changed out furniture and added a 2nd sofa...but it started super simple and it was lovely back then.  When the world is swirling around us and making no sense, how are you keeping things simple at home?  #socococozy #bringstylehome #cococozy
Pre-pandemic throw back photo to where I was last Pre-pandemic throw back photo to where I was last year.  Clueless as to what was to come.  Was in Paris, with my mom, enjoying her summer apartment in the middle of the 6th arrondissement.  I had just left the U.K. visiting friends for a few days in London and the Cotswolds.  None of us knew that this summer 2020 would be so different.  Today, I can only hope this time of tumult and great divides leads somehow to a future of calm and harmony.  Going backwards in time is not an option.  Pushing forward is.  Happy Sunday to you.  Where were you last summer?  Where do you imagine you’ll be next? Xoxo #socococozy #bringstylehome
Incredible living room before and after as designe Incredible living room before and after as designed by my good friend Steve Jones @bettershelter!  I went on a tour today.  I also went on a tour a year ago when he first got the house.  See my stories. Swipe to see what this room looked like before.  Life lesson from a room transformation:  When faced with the daunting and not so pretty, look to do the work, and you can make changes to bring  out what is good.  Right?  This home by the way is going on the market soon and is in one of my favorite parts of town, View Park.  What changes have you made lately that have turned bad into good? #socococozy #bringstylehome #remodeling #homerenovation #californiadreaming
ā€œBe patient with yourself it has been a funky fe ā€œBe patient with yourself it has been a funky few months in the world.ā€ My friend Manon texted this advice to me today.  She is right.  A little patience and a lot of kindness to yourself and to others during these unusual times will go a long way.
***
Am in my living room right now looking at these pretty flowers in that white urn I found lying around.  The urn works (see Flower Power highlights for backstory). Thinking on who I might send one of these bouquets to today as a little act of kindness.  Still working on the patience piece of her advice! 🤪 Who might you send flowers to?  How can you be more patient with yourself? Happy Saturday!

Hi! Finally something to smile about! šŸ˜‚ Exciti Hi!  Finally something to smile about! šŸ˜‚ Exciting flower news today as I debut the first ever COCOCOZY designed bouquet in my latest partnership! Tada.  Here is The Classic by COCOCOZY exclusively on @ftdflowers + @proflowers as part of their #herestoher initiative!  Swipe left to see it up close.  I wanted to design a super lush classically beautiful bouquet that would look good in any home during the fall/winter.  Roses, eucalyptus and so much more in soft whites and greens.  I am so happy with the final product.  What’s great is that this hand tied bouquet comes in a box straight to your door and you can put it in any vase.  If you swipe left you can see it in my breakfast room.  Perfect for sending as a birthday gift, celebration, expression of love or friendship, a business gift, a thank you to someone or I recommend ordering for yourself every couple of weeks to cheer up your space as we stay at home more!  I plan on getting them weekly!  Anyhoooo...I’m linking to the bouquet in my profile.  Have you ever ordered flowers for yourself just because?  Who might you send these to?  #socococozy #bringstylehome #cococozy
