The homeowners loved the look of a slightly rugged natural stone floor. Because they also wanted low maintenance, the designer steered them toward porcelain. “As someone with a trained eye, I can usually tell the difference between natural stone and porcelain, but in this case I really can’t,” she says. “We used a wide range of color in the tiles, and they have a texture to them. There are even little faux chips in them. Also, the texture makes it slip-resistant.” Bula had the tiles laid in a classic herringbone pattern.
The wall paint, Etiquette by Benjamin Moore, is a shade Bula tested in her own home. “Before I used it, I did a bunch of blind paint color tests and I chose this color every time,” she says. “It’s a really nice warm neutral that does not lean too beige. And it looks so nice next to white trim.” The white paint is Benjamin Moore’s Simply White.
