Wine Rack - refrigerator wall area

We would like to place this wine on the counters next to the refrigerator.  The space there is off, so we can use these instead of cabinets to hold wine bottles and add dimension and decor.  Check out http://superiorclay.com-look under wine storage.

Mud Room

Situated outside the kitchen, on the way to the garage.  One side of the hall only.  This is a concept-won't be exactly like this...there will not be any enclosed cabinets or drawers.

Kitchen

This is the kitchen cooktop and hood design that we want to model.  Our framer will frame this space with our cooktop centered below a framed/tiled design.  The hood will be Cantera stone and stucco all the way up to the ceiling.

We have a copper light that looks very similar to the one in the photo.
