For this week’s peek into our Three Rivers project, we’re heading into the kitchen and dining room: two spaces separated on the floor plan but speaking the same design language. Both rooms carry forward the soft neutral used in the foyer, a hue with a quiet pink undertone that keeps things warm without veering precious. It’s a subtle backdrop that works beautifully with the surrounding mountain light and helps the whole home feel intentionally connected.

The kitchen leans into clean, modern lines with a gentle mix of matte black, vibrant greens, and warm wood tones. With wall paint softening the sharper elements, the whole space projects a grounded ease that feels right for a home meant to host both weekend guests and laid-back family dinners. And hits of olive and rust keep it tied to the California-meets–Sierra foothills palette we’ve been weaving throughout the project.

Just across the living room, the dining space continues the story with a blend of organic shapes and crisp contrast. A sculptural pendant, live-edge wood table, and textural seating give the room a relaxed sophistication–nothing too formal, nothing too casual, just a sweet spot that suits both rental life and unhurried vacation meals. The palette stays warm and earthy, echoing the natural tones outside without getting too literal about it.
